Top pick: #10 (HITCHSLAP) (5-1) - Nicely bred filly is dropping to a new low, shortening up in distance, and going from turf to dirt. Daughter of "Successful Appeal" draws a nice outside post, meets a weak field, and is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #9 (Ongoing Appeal) (5-2) - The probable favorite, she's been competitive in all four starts and will be dropping into a career soft spot and racing on conventional dirt for the first time. One-run type is an obvious win candidate at a short price.
3rd pick: #7 (Sicilysmostwanted) (6-1) - Lightly-raced filly has finished third at this level racing on the Golden Gate "Tapeta" surface in both appearances. Better speed was shown in her latest and she must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #5 (Lil Orphan Ellie) (8-1) - Home bred enters off a career best figure when she finished second facing a bit tougher at Golden Gate Fields on June 13th. She's worked fast locally since that effort and is a threat if it's repeatable on real dirt.
