Top pick: #5 (JESSIE M) - Since shipping here from Florida, filly raced evenly in a stakes at Belmont on July 28th and then finished a pace-setting second here facing slightly better on July 27th. Takes this with a repeat of that effort.
2nd pick: #1 (Promise Me a Cat) - She tired while racing wide in the same July 27th contest as "Jessie" and this afternoon breaks from the rail. Filly has a pair of back-to-back bullet works showing since that effort and Dominguez is back aboard after a one race absence.
3rd pick: #4 (Xunlei) - 3-year-old had some trouble here on August 8th when she ran in the same race as returning champ "My Miss Aurelia" and tired after playing catch-up early. Race was her first in three months and this filly has excellent early speed.
