Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (GIRLS AND GUNS) (5-2) - Stretch out sprinter finished 2nd here at this tag going 6.5 furlongs facing fellow Pa. breds Sept. 5th. It was her second back from a seven-week break, and she's run well at this distance in the past. Home bred gets a a light edge.
2nd pick: #1 (Flattering Tales) (4-1) - Well bred filly just missed here facing tougher on a sloppy surface at this distance Sept. 13th. A career best, it came in her second off almost a 100-day layoff. She's improved since moving to the barn of Ramon Preciado and is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #7 (Talkin Hailey Jo) (7-2) - She 'won' here at this tag and trip Aug. 4th, but was disqualified and placed 2nd. Speed/stalker is working well for her first in seven weeks and must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #8 (Heavenly Summer) (6-1) - Monmouth shipper rode the rail to a non-threatening 3rd place finish there at this level and distance Aug. 16th. Home bred needs to do better for anything more than a small slice of this.
