Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (SONGBIRD) (3-5) - Daughter of 'Medaglia d'Oro' enters this G1 contest looking to stretch her undefeated streak to 10. Following her maiden win late in July of 2015, filly has won eight straight stakes, including five G1s. One of two with a local win, her's came going nine furlongs July 24 in the G1 Coaching Club American Oaks. Working fast since, a clean break and trip are all she needs.
2nd pick: #5 (Family Tree) (10-1) - Much improved filly ships from the mid-west where she won the Indiana Oaks (G2) July 16. Speed/stalker had taken the Iowa Oaks (G3) at Prairie Meadows in her prior start and daughter of 'Smart Strike' should factor in her first on the NYRA circuit.
3rd pick: #4 (Go Maggie Go) (8-1) - Talented and lightly raced, she won a pair of G2 stakes earlier this year and finished fourth in two G1 contests. Working fast for her first start since June 11, she has early speed and think she'll try and challenge 'Songbird' in the early stages.
4th pick: #3 (Going for Broke) (10-1) - Since checking in second when debuting April 10 at Aqueduct, daughter of 'Blame' has won three in a row. The latest came here going nine furlongs over weaker July 27. Home bred is in the barn of leading trainer Chad Brown and clearly has room for upside, As in all her previous races, leading rider Irad Ortiz Jr. is aboard.
