Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (MARGARET REAY) (3-1) - She's racing herself back into shape following a pair of layoffs. Blinkers go on, she shortens up in distance, and draws a much better post than in her latest pair. Can take this with a stretch rally.

2nd pick: #9 (Perdona) (6-1) - Speed/stalker has been freshened up since missing by less than a length at Del Mar at this level and distance Aug. 15th. $250K daughter of 'Blame' should be involved from start-to-finish. Win candidate.

3rd pick: #5 (Boat Drinks) (7-2) - Speedy sort moves back to the grass for the first time since last winter. She's finished 2nd in three of four previous starts on this course and is a strong contender if ready for her first start since July 30.

4th pick: #2 (Broken Halo) (6-1) - Filly ran 4th when debuting at Belmont Park for a $75K tag June 19. She ran evenly that day and has been training above average locally for her return.

5th pick: #1 (Yaffe) (1) - She has some ability and breaks from the rail. Working fast for this attempt, daughter of 'City Zip' may grab a share at a square price.
