Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (BELIEVE INDEED) (7-2) - Lightly-raced home bred has been freshened up since May 21. Filly finished fourth of 12, beaten 3.5 lengths last out facing tougher at Pimlico. She had a difficult outside post (12th of 12) and had to run very wide the whole race. Trainer Arnaud Delacour (7 for 15 at this meet) drops her into a claimer and she draws a much better starting slot.

2nd pick: #5 (Majestic Trick) (3-1) - Another that's lightly-raced, she's been on the sidelines since late February. $135,000 purchase had wide trips in her last pair at Gulfstream facing tougher and is dropping into a claimer for the first time. Dangerous in this spot.

3rd pick: #7 (Vizi Girl) (5-1) - Daughter of top grass sire 'Kitten's Joy' enters off a career beat June 15. Racing here at this level and distance, she set a pressured pace and held well while under pressure to finish second. She earned a career best figure, has worked since, and her early speed makes her a threat.

4th pick: #6 (Zarcat) (15-1) - Longshot ran evenly here at this trip facing tougher June 18. Only her second start, it was her first since debuting in a dirt sprint at Tampa Bay Downs March 12. Hall of Famer Jonathan Shepard drops her in class and has her making back-to-back starts for the first time.
