Top pick: #8 (FASTER) - Filly hasn't raced since November 3, but will run for the first time for trainer Pete Walder and will also race with blinkers on. Trainer wins first out with 31% of his new stock and at a 20% rate on the blinker angle. Can take this at a square price.
2nd pick: #1 (Sphynx Key) - Virtually eased in her latest in a switched race here June 15. Previous turf race (a sprint at Pimlico) indicates she likes the grass and should run well in this spot.
3rd pick: #5 (Arms Race) - Improving runner finished a pace-setting second in an "off the turf" event here on June 7. Bred for turf success, she should be competitive today in her first race on the infield.
