Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (Entry of # 1-ENGINEERS REPORT and 1a-WEGOTOLDYOUGO) (5-2) - 'Engineer' is dropping in class, switching from turf to dirt, and is cutting back in distance. Working well locally, he heads a strong entry. 'Wegotoldyougotold' is a NEW gelding and has been working very fast here for his first race since late January. Win candidate.
2nd pick: #5 (Carmine's Honor) (5-1) - He's one of two entered by trainer Gary Contessa and the pair race uncoupled. NEW gelding faces winners following a good looking maiden win at Belmont going 6 furlongs July 4. Three-year-old enters off three straight bullet 3-furlongs works on the training track here and is a threat at a square price.
3rd pick: #7 (Hokulea) (8-1) - The second of the pair from trainer Contessa, he's been freshened up since a wide and even effort facing tougher going 7 furlongs on the Belmont turf June 10. Stretch runner worked fast here July 5 and should be making up ground late.
