Top pick: #7 (DORSET DAMSEL) (7-5) - The probable favorite, filly finished 3rd of 12, beaten 3 1/2 lengths for a $22.5K tag in her local debut July 5. Good barn (Dale Capuano) drops her in class, adds blinkers, and has leading rider Gallardo back on the re-ride. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #3 (Muster In) (2-1) - She's finished close up in three straight here at this level and is a threat. However, if 'Dorset Damsel' runs, this filly will have to do much better to threaten her.
3rd pick: #8 (Silver Pigeon) (6-1) - She was never involved when debuting in the same last race as 'Dorset.' She takes the same drop as that filly and should be competitive against the balance of this field if she has any ability.
4th pick: #5 (Cottina) (5-1) - Speedy sort has been competitive in two straight here at this level. However, this is start #16 and a small slice is her ceiling.
