Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #8 (SHE'S NOT BLUFFING) (2-1) - This speedy filly moves up in price in her first following a Gary Gullo claim for $16,000 July 13. She finished a pace-setting second here that day going 7 furlongs and is shortening up a 1/16th while drawing a fine outside post for the trip. Gullo wins at a solid 20% first off the claim and has Luis Saez aboard. She gets slight edge.

2nd pick: #1 (Zandora) (7-2) - A lightly raced daughter of 'Jimmy Creed', she's dropping in class, switching from grass to dirt, shortens up in distance, and does so with blinkers on, a 26% winning angle from the barn of Brad Cox. She broke her maiden going 8.5 furlongs on a sloppy surface at Belmont May 5 in her only previous attempt on the dirt. She's dangerous in this weak field.

3rd pick: #5 (Movie Score) (9-2) - A $100K daughter of 'Malibu Moon', she finished a distant third here at this tag going 7 furlongs July 19. It earned her a career best figure and she's back on an 12-day turnaround with Joel Rosario staying aboard.
