Top pick: #2 (HATHEER) - Well-backed in her debut daughter of "Storm Cat" battled through fast fractions and held gamely to finish second. She'll stretch-out in distance and she draws the coveted inside post. Trainer McLaughlin is strong on the stretch (27%) and second time out (24%). The top pick.
2nd pick: #1a (Dad's Crazy) - Daughter of "Langfuhr" tired after showing big speed last out in a race at this distance. She'll be more relaxed today from her outside post and is a threat.
3rd pick: #4 (It'smyburthday) - She took some money in her debut and daughter of "Stormy Atlantic" raced evenly, finishing well back of the today's top selection. Look for a better effort this afternoon.
4th pick: #5 (Coquina Day) - Daughter of "Thunder Gulch" has a pair of dirt starts behind her and trainer Dave Donk will move her to the infield today. Nice grass work on Sept. 1 and she'll run well at a square price.
