Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (CAJUN KITTEN) (4-1) - Lightly-raced and well bred, he has early speed and is dropping to a new low. From a top barn (Bret Calhoun), gelding tired to finish foruth here June 25 after setting a pressured pace facing tougher. It was his first back off a pair of two-month breaks and he's making back-to-back starts for the first time since late this past winter.

2nd pick: #3 (Seven Heart) (7-2) - Four-year-old moves to the grass following three straight solid efforts on the dirt. The last pair have come here and this stalker has 'figures' on the main track that make him a serious win candidate if he repeats them on the turf.

3rd pick: #7 (Dry Wood Creek) (6-1) - Another with some early speed, he broke his maiden here going a mile on the grass May 18. In his first facing winners on June 22, he tired after setting the pace racing for a $25K tag. Capable barn brings him back quickly and drops him down to race for a $15K price tag. In the mix.

4th pick: #6 (Reckless Ransom) (10-1) - Recent maiden winner did so racing here going 8.5 furlongs on the main track June 24. Stalker is consistent and is bred by 'Regal Ransom' to enjoy the grass which he is racing on for the first time.
