Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (FIGHT NIGHT) (9-2) - This $150K purchase has been idle since May 25 when she tired while wide facing tougher on the Belmont grass going 7 furlongs. Trainer George Weaver has her working steadily, drops her into a claimer (a 30% winning angle by the barn), switches her back to the main track, and is cutting her back in distance.
2nd pick: #8 (Accabonac Harbor) (6-1) - A lightly raced home bred, she runs today following 7 months on the sidelines. She showed some ability in her first pair and enters off a sharp half-mile work from the gate June 22 at Belmont Park.
3rd pick: #14 (Summer Fantasy) (8-1) - Another that's dropping into a claimer for the first time and that's a strong 34% winning move by trainer Jeremiah Englehart. Well beaten June 20 facing tougher on a sloppy surface at Belmont, I like that she's back on a quick turnaround.
4th pick: #5 (Abby Normal) (4-1) - A daughter of 'Birdstone', she rallied to miss by just under a length at this level on the Belmont grass June 23. It was by far a career best and she's a threat if that effort is repeatable in this 'off the turf' contest.
