Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (DREAM PASSAGE) (9-5) - This mare has developed into a steady performer over the past year. A 5yo speed/stalker, she's finished second in both starts at this meet, drops in class, and has the rail. She gets top billing.
2nd pick: #4 (Arch of Troy) (7-2) - Like most claimed by Jay Servis, this runner has improved since he obtained her in early Feb at Gulfstream for $35,000. Mare has a stalking style, is nicely spotted, and Servis has Irad Ortiz Jr aboard.
3rd pick: #6 (Wish Upon) (8-1) - She's won three of six this year and 5yo scored here facing fellow state breds Aug. 1 at this distance. In career best form, mare is a threat despite moving back in with 'open' company.
