Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (LA PREMIERE ETOILE) (7-2) - Reddam home bred has been freshened up since late May. When last in action, filly finished a pace-setting second at this level going 8.5 furlongs at Santa Anita. Lightly raced, working fast at Los Alamitos, and she can win this if ready.

2nd pick: #4 (Lethal Legacy) (6-1) - Filly ran fourth here at this level and distance July 23. Good effort came off almost a two month break and she had some early traffic issues that afternoon. Contends in this spot.

3rd pick: #10 (Golden Light) (4-1) - Much improved since switching to the grass, she finished second at this level when going a mile June 18 at Santa Anita. On the sidelines since, she's worked three times locally for this attempt.

4th pick: #11 (Stylistic) (20-1) - Speed mare runs first off a Chris Hartman claim (27%). Her early speed is a plus, but the outside post is not. She could factor at a big price if able to clear off in the first half-mile.

5th pick: #2 (Starlite Style) (3-1) - No-speed type just missed here July 21. An obvious contender, but she's no lock at what will be a short price.
