Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (NO DOZING) (2-1) - Veteran stakes performer ships up from Delaware Park where he finished second as the favorite in a $100K stakes going 6 furlongs July 13. It was his second start back following a 7.5 month layoff and he's been working very fast at the Fair Hill Center for this attempt. He's won here in the past and it came at this level and distance last summer.
2nd pick: #1 (Uncontested) (7-2) - Very fast from the gate, he won a G3 stakes at this distance in Feb., but has tired in a trio of subsequent stakes since then. 5yo has a pair of extremely local works showing, including 6 furlongs in 1:11 flat Aug 1. A strong win candidate.
3rd pick: #4 (Tale of Silence) (3-1) - Steady performer gets some class relief today after competing in four straight 'Graded' stakes all going a one-turn mile. Latest saw him race evenly in a loaded Met Mile (G1) June 8 at Belmont. Working steadily for his return, he must be left in the mix.
