Top pick: #1 (GARBU AND SHE) - In shape closer rallied to finish a close-up 3rd here facing tougher on the grass August 31st and her connections will drop her down a bit and switch her back to the main track. Two of her four wins have come on this surface and she draws the ground saving rail. 7yo can run these down late.
2nd pick: #9 (Bressie) - She has more early speed than most entered and exits the same grass contest as "Garbu". Not far back of her at the wire, that was this mares first race in 3 1/2 months and this 5yo has some back class. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #6 (Seeking the Max) - Another exiting the same grass contest as the top pair and that has the look of just a "prep" for this dirt loving filly. Race was her first in 4 months and she's a major factor against these with her best.
