Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (GUST) (2-1) - Away since May 20, grey filly finished 2nd here that day racing for a $75K claiming price. Trainer Peter Miller is off to a great start at this meet (9-4-2-2), and he wins at a 26% rate off of long layoffs. Filly is working sharply and can win this if ready.

2nd pick: #3 (Summertimemischief) (5-2) - Speedy 4yo is shortening up in distance and drops into a claimer for the first time. Capable of contending, and she has a recency edge on the other two selections.

3rd pick: #4 (Our Candy Charms) (4-1) - Unraced since May 12, mare turns 6yo today and has only made six starts. When last in action, she rallied to miss by a 1/2-length here at this level and distance. Working fast, and a threat if ready.
