Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #3 (GREAT NECK) (4-1) - Filly received good betting support when debuting here at this level going six furlongs Aug 4. She rallied to finish third and has worked since. The Midwest based trainer Brad Cox is doing well from the small group he brought here and he wins at a 23% rate second time out.

2nd pick: #6 (Tainted Angel) (5-1) - Grey filly has finished second in both starts and last out was ahead of 'Great Neck' at the finish. She came from behind when debuting July 8 at Belmont, hen was involved in the pace every step last out. An obvious win candidate.

3rd pick: #2 (Ingrid) (9-2) - One of six fillies making their debut, she's worked five times here in the past month, including a bullet three furlongs from the gate Aug 12. She cost $140,000 last Sept. and is from a capable barn, veteran Mike Hushion.

4th pick: #1 (She's My Ghibli) (15-1) - Debuting filly has the rail and a a pair of above average back-to-back half-mile breezes heading into her first appearance. She can factor but a sharp break from her inside post is essential.
