Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (PITTSBURGH PHIL) (9-5) - Speed/stalker has been competitive in two of his last three at this level and distance. His latest, a third-place finish July 16 produced a career best figure. Gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #4 (Mason's Dream) (5-2) - He broke poorly last out and tired after rushing up to be near the pace. He was seven lengths behind 'Mason's Dream' that day, but had finished in front of that rival in his previous start. A strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #5 (Awesome Dancer) (8-1) - The main speed, he's trying a two-turn distance for the first time. Florida has shown good early speed sprinting and will take them as far as she can.
4th pick: #1 (Champ Joey) (6) - Veteran has the rail and two back was within four lengths of 'Mason's Dream.' Old time has 19 minor awards to go along with his two wins and believe a small slices is again his ceiling.
