Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (CONQUEST LUCKNLOVE) (8-5) - One of two entered by Chad Brown and the pair race as separate betting interests. Trainer is having a spectacular meet 55-17-10-6 and one of his two in today's opener should win this. This speedy 4yo has been freshened up since May 13 when she missed by a 1/2 length facing tougher at Belmont Park. Working above average and she gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #3 (Tailoredforsuccess) (2-1) - The 2nd of the Brown fillies, she's raced wide and evenly in both starts facing special weights. Freshened up for the past two months, barn drops this $400,000 Irish bred into a $75K claimer. Leading rider Irad Ortiz Jr. is aboard and this 3yo completes a very strong hand for Brown to play.
3rd pick: #6 (She's So Fine) (8-1) - Grey filly rallied to finish 4th of 9, beaten three lengths racing at this level and distance July 14 at Belmont Park. She looks next best and her chances would improve dramatically if a fast/and or contested pace were to develop.
