Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (BOURBON MISSION) (7-2) - This lightly raced 4yo was an easy maiden winner going 7 furlongs here for a $25K tag July 19. Claimed that afternoon by Joe Sharp, he brings him back quickly while moving him to the grass. He had a very wide trip in his only previous attempt on the turf and think he can win right back.

2nd pick: #1 (Elenzee) (3-1) - Clearly the main speed, he tired while wide after pressing a quick pace here at this level and distance July 11. Veteran moves from the 9-post to the rail, has Jose Ortiz staying aboard, and this 5yo is a strong win candidate.

3rd pick: #9 (Jack the Cat) (4-1) - Another that's lightly raced, he was a sharp maiden winner going 6 furlongs on the Belmont grass June 22. 3yo is improving with each start, has plenty of room for upside, and is in the win mix.

4th pick: #8 (Fled) (8-1) - He was entered and scratched out of a similar spot early in the meet. 5yo ships from Laurel where he defeated 'open' $16,000 claimers at this trip June 22. The figure earned puts him in this and at a square price.
