Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (ROSEBUD'S HOPE) (7-2) - Lightly-raced filly ships from Monmouth where she won facing a bit weaker June 30 going 8.5 furlongs on the grass. Competitive in all three turf attempts, she has good early speed and gets a slight edge.
2nd pick: #3 (Theodosia) (2-1) - The morning line and probable favorite, she tired here facing much tougher July 28. Stalker had a very difficult outside post (12th of 12) and draws much better while facing considerably weaker. A strong win candidate and I could have easily made her the top selection.
3rd pick: #6 (Hogan's Holiday) (8-1) - Indiana invader has won two of her last three all on off tracks with a pair of those coming in races that were taken 'off the turf'. From a winning barn (Tom Amoss) and think she can factor at a square price,
