Top pick: #7 (EMONA) - Stretch runner ships from Prairie Meadows where she finished a close-up third in the (G3) Iowa Oaks on June 30th. Race was her best in seven outings and was her first on real dirt. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #4 (Snakeinthegrass) - She chased and weakened slightly to finish third here at this level and distance June 22nd in her first following a good-looking maiden win in her previous start. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #8 (Awow) - She was an impressive 15 length winner of her debut June 17th, then tran evenly last out at this level. One-run type has blinkers added and should factor this evening.
