Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (FANTASIZE) (3-1) - Gelding by grass champ 'Artie Schiller' is dropping in class in his third start back following an almost a half-year's absence. He's finished 4th in his return pair in Maryland and makes his local debut. In a high percentage barn (Kieron Magee), he has this 4yo sitting on a big effort.

2nd pick: #3 (Shan Dian Kia) (4-1) - Speedy grey gelding is lightly raced and has gone 5-2-2-0 so far with all his starts coming on the turf. He's won two in a row at Pimlico, with one coming on the front end and the latest from a stalking spot. In the barn of leading trainer Janie Ness and is an obvious win candidate.

3rd pick: #2 (Old Fashioned King) (6-1) - Home bred is racing third off an eight-week break and has run evenly in his first pair back on the main track. Grey gelding earned a career best 'figure' here June 22, and his connections move him to the grass.

4th pick: #5 (Seventyseven Honor) (8-1) - He has more early speed than most and fits at the tag and trip. His chances depend on whether 'Shan Dian Kia" decides to go the front or stalk. Whichever they do, this gelding will have to undergo the opposite tactics for anything more than a minor award.
