Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #8 (RUSHING FALL) (5-2) - Lightly-raced daughter of 'More Than Ready' has been pointed to this stakes since an easy win in Saratoga's G2 Lake Placid Stakes at this 9-furlong distance Aug. 18. She's won 5-of-6 overall and is a perfect two for two on this course. $320,000 purchase is from the Chad Brown barn and will be tough to beat in this spot.
2nd pick: #7 (Capla Temptress) (6-1) - Irish import rallied to finish second to 'Rushing Fall' at Saratoga Aug. 18. However, in her follow up at Belmont Sep 15 she tired while wide in a G2 stakes at this distance. A G1 winner at Woodbine in Sept. of 2017, she just missed in a rich Group 1 in France following that start. She's dangerous at a square price with her 'A' game.
3rd pick: #5 (Mission Impassible) (8-1) - One of two European invaders making their No. American debuts, she won a Group 2 in France June 3. In her follow up there July 29, daughter of international sire 'Galileo' finished 5th of 11, beaten 7 lengths in a Group 1 . She could factor if either of that pair is repeatable today.
4th pick: #6 (Secret Message) (12-1) - Much improved since switching to the grass in May, the filly has gone 4-2-1-0 on the turf and won a G3 at this distance Aug. 11 at Arlington Park. In her latest, she missed by a 1/2 length at Belmont Sept. 15 while 5.5 lengths in front of 'Capla Temptress'. She has more tactical speed than most and is capable of impacting at a big price.
