Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (FIELDING GOLD) (4-1) - Busy 4yo is dropping in class and is stretching out in distance for this attempt. He was never involved here going seven furlongs while facing tougher July 23 and is much more suited to this two-turn distance. He breaks just off the rail and can run them down turning for home.

2nd pick: #6 (Augie's Coming) (2-1) - The main speed, he's stretching out in distance for his first attempt at this 3l condition. Lightly raced 5yo was an easy four-length winner going 8.5 furlongs at Belmont Park June 29. It was his first following a Rudy Rodriguez claim, and his early speed makes him a win candidate.

3rd pick: #4 (Dunk a Din) (4-1) - Kentucky invader is taking a big drop for this attempt. Strong finisher rallied while wide facing tougher at Churchill Downs June 11. He had gone 3-1-2-0 prior to that, and this 4yo is a late threat at this nine-furlong trip.

4th pick: #3 (Enduring Honor) (9-2) - Good barn (Tom Amoss) ships this gelding in from Indiana Downs where he missed by a 'nose' facing $32K claimers in his first at this 3l condition. An easy winner at Churchill in his prior start, he has positional speed, and is a threat in his New York debut.
