Top pick: #1a (SMOKIN SARAH) - Speed/stalker is part of a Scott Lake trained entry and is the horse to beat if she runs. Loves the course (9-3-3-1), enters this in fine shape, and has never raced this low before. The pick.
2nd pick: #4 (Pu Dew) - One-run type has finished second in her last pair, the most recent coming at this tag and distance on July 8. More than capable against this type and a win threat to the Lake entry.
3rd pick: #1 (Tide Runner) - Coupled in the wagering with the top pick, veteran mare will take a huge plunge in price this afternoon is she runs. She's been racing evenly against tougher stock and can win this on the drop if she competes.
