Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (NILEIST) (2-1) - A 4yo by 'Pioneer of the Nile', he's making his conventional dirt debut after finishing second in 5-of-10 on the grass. He missed by a 'head' at Golden Gate Fields at this tag June 6 in his first start in 7 months. He'll beat these if he takes to the surface.
2nd pick: #2 (Rocket Ship) (5-2) - A lightly raced Harris Farm home bred, he's taking a big drop while stretching out beyond 6 furlongs in his 3rd attempt. 3yo has the rail and believe he'll be involved every step. A win candidate.
3rd pick: #7 (Dawood) (3-1) - The third horse that's in the mix, he finished third at this distance for a $30K tag June 8 at Santa Anita. Well bred 4yo has a good late kick and should love the long stretch here.
