Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (MUTHHILA) (8-5) - Irish import drops down to this $25K claiming price after rallying to finish third at Del Mar for a $50,000 tag Aug. 29. There's plenty of speed signed on to aid her late running style and she'll be tough in this spot.
2nd pick: #8 (Appolina) (6-1) - Filly stretches out in distance and is moving to the grass in her first off a Dallas Keen claim. Bred for the surface, she's been competitive in all six starts and should be today at a big price.
3rd pick: #2 (Lucky Stepper) (5-1) - She takes the same drop as 'Muthhila' after finishing 3 lengths behind that rival for a $50K tag Aug. 29 at Del Mar. State bred has a flexible style and is in the mix.
4th pick: #1 (A Dime for Me) (15-1) - Longshot moves back to the grass after tiring at this level sprinting on the Los Al dirt Sept. 7. She has early speed, draws the rail, and will take them as far as she can at a big price.
