Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #8 (MISS BIG STUFF) (7-2) - Lightly-raced and speedy, 3-year-old is taking a big drop in class for her second back from a 100 day break. She tired badly following a 'stumbling' start facing tougher in her return race at Del Mar Sept. 3. Working fast since, she's won here in the past and is spotted to win by trainer Peter Miller.

2nd pick: #7 (Miss Bliss) (3-1) - Freshened up since Aug 24, 4yo tired that afternoon facing tougher at Del Mar. It was her first following a Mark Glatt claim and he drops her back town to the claimed level ($16,000). Consistent filly has a fine local record 7-2-3-0 and is a win candidate.

3rd pick: #1 (Tinderette) (4-1) - Speed/stalker is working fast here for her first since Aug 27. Trainer Jeff Mullins drops her way down in class and all of this 3-year-old's success has been here 4-2-2-0. She must be left in the mix.

4th pick: #2 (Nazareth) (12-1) - No-speed type rallied from far back to win at this tag and trip Sept. 4 at Del Mar. She cleared the 2l condition that day and faces tougher in this spot. Mare should get a fast and/or contested pace to close into and may grab a share at a big price.
