Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (ULTIMATE GAME) (7-2) - Grey filly tired when debuting June 25 at Santa Anita racing for a $40K tag. She was bet down to 2-1 favoritism and chased a fast pace before weakening. Claimed that day by John Sadler, he drops her price tag in half in this spot. A swift 5-furlong gate work here July 24 suggests her readiness.

2nd pick: #8 (Patience Lady) (4-1) - Competitive in six of her seven starts, stalker enters off an even 5th place finish at this claiming price June 23 at Santa Anita. Stalker draws a good post for her style and is a threat.

3rd pick: #10 (Mum's Frost) (6-1) - Lightly raced 4yo filly has been competitive in all three starts since returning from a 13-month layoff June 23. She ran 2nd at this tag July 8 at Santa Anita, but needs to do a bit better in this spot.

4th pick: #1 (Turf Club Queen) (9-2) - Mare is now 6.5-yrs old and is still looking for her first win.Veteran has been competitive in four straight at this level and one run type has the rail, Stretch threat.

5th pick: #5 (Leah's Reward) (10-1) - Debuting filly is working above average and 3yo need not be much to factor first out against this group. Can't be eliminated.
