Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #9 (MISS RICOCHET) (7-2) - Daughter of 'Colonel John' has a speed/stalking style and has been competitive in all four dirt sprints. 4yo is racing 2nd back from a 6.5 month layoff and is on the grass for the first time. She's working fast, is bred for the surface switch, and gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #3 (Whoa Nessie) (9-2) - One of two entered by trainer Doug O'Neill, she's the main speed and enters off a pace-setting 3rd place finish at this level and distance April 13. Reddam home has her blinkers removed and should be involved from gate-to-wire.
3rd pick: #12 (Helen's Tiger) (6-1) - Longshot is the 2nd from trainer Doug O'Neill. Grey filly was only beaten a bit over a length here at this level and distance May 6. By far a career best, it was her first start since Nov 18, first on the grass, and has worked very fast twice since. Win candidate.
4th pick: #5 (Council Women) (4-1) - Lightly raced 4yo has been on the sidelines since Oct 14. No speed type is working steadily, but may need a start or two before showing her best. Believe a minor award is her ceiling.
