Top pick: #3 (PLEASANT COMMENT) - Speedy mare takes a big drop in price and will switch back to the all-weather surface after tiring last out on the grass. She's been in poor form this year in three starts when facing tougher and this big drop should return her to form.
2nd pick: #5 (Celestial Grove) - Lightly-raced filly has performed evenly in her last pair at this level going shorter and stretches-out in distance for the DiPasquale barn. She'll be competitive this evening.
3rd pick: #6 (Whinny Pooh) - Mare ran evenly facing special weights on the grass August 12th in her first start since Dec. of 2009. Capable barn (Kevin Attard) drops her down and moves her to the main track.
