Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (WHOA NESSIE) (6-1) - Reddam home bred moves from turf to dirt following a 3rd place finish here at this level and distance on the grass June 3. Speed/stalker finished 2nd here on the main track when debuting March 15, and filly draws a fine outside post at this trip. She has a good chance at a square price.

2nd pick: #6 (Coco Kisses) (5-2) - The probable favorite, she moves back in with maidens following a pace-setting 5th place finish here in a $200K stakes going 8.5 furlongs June 3. She had finished 2nd in two of three sprints prior to that at this level and is an obvious win candidate today.

3rd pick: #2 (Chasin Lucas) (3-1) - Daughter of the fleet 'Shanghai Bobby' finished 2nd beaten just under a length when debuting here at this level going six furlongs June 2. She's worked fast since and is a win candidate in this spot.

4th pick: #4 (Into Rissa) (20-1) - Away slowly last out, she raced evenly once in stride and was seven lengths behind 'Chasin Lucas' that afternoon. It was her first race in nine months, and she showed enough talent last year to get a minor award today at a big price with an alert beginning.
