Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #8 (MISS GREEN POND) (4-1) - Recent maiden winner did so here going 6.5 furlongs for a $15K claiming price Sept. 22nd. Stalker is nicely spotted by a sharp barn (Keith Nations), and she meets a weak looking group. Gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #1 (La Muskette) (5-2) - Lightly raced filly is moving from turf to dirt and dropping down in class. She rallied to finish 3rd Sept. 19th at Monmouth facing tougher in a grass sprint. Race was her first since March 5, and she should contend at this reduced level on the main track.
3rd pick: #6 (Rosemarie) (7-2) - Mare has trouble at the start in four-straight attempts. She's managed to be competitive in three of those, and speed/stalker must be left in the win mix.
4th pick: #2 (Wicklow Gray Lady) (10-1) - Grey filly has been at this 2l condition for a long time, but one run type has been competitive in four of her last five. She draws a ground saving post and should be closing during the stretch run.
