Top pick: #1 (WEATHER GIRL) (3-1) - Daughter of grass champ 'Artie Schiller' is racing third back from a long layoff. She's raced evenly in her return pair facing tougher and is dropping into a claimer for the first time. She has the rail, and it's Franco off and Castellano rides.
2nd pick: #10 (Ten Penny Princess) (5-2) - The morning line favorite, she rallied to miss by a 'head' here at this level Aug 13. It was her first race in nine months and a career best overall. An obvious contender, she moves from the cozy rail to an outside slot.
3rd pick: #7 (Flying K C ) (5-1) - Filly is racing back into shape after being on the sidelines for 17 months. She rallied to finish second here at this tag July 24 in her best since getting back into action. Win candidate.
4th pick: #8 (Little Mary-Ellen) (20-1) - Long shot is going dirt to turf, stretching back out in distance, and moving up in class. All of that comes in her first off a Karl Grusmark claim. Stretch runner may grab a share at a big price.
