Top pick: #5 (MAGSAMELIA) (7-2) - Filly takes a big drop in class after setting a quick and pressured pace before tiring here July 26. It was her first back off a two-month break and trainer Gary Contessa brings her back quickly for this attempt. The horse to beat.
2nd pick: #1 (Sunrise Kitty) (2-1) - Professional turf sprinting mare has gone 9-3-1-2 in these short turf contests. Speed/stalker has the rail and was scratched recently at Monmouth to await this spot. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #6 (Colonel Juanita) (12-1) - One of two entered by trainer Joe Sharp and the pair race un-coupled. Filly has a solid record on the dirt and runs first off a claim (31% by Sharp). Bred to handle the grass and a threat at a big price if she does.
4th pick: #4 (Chelsea Road) (6-1) - The second of the Sharp trained fillies, she's racing first off a claim and a seven week break. One-run type is 2-for-4 at this trip on the grass and must be left in the mix.
