Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #2 (END OF SPIRITS) (5-2) - Son of 'Ghostzapper' is shortening up in distance following a second place finish here at this level going 8.5 furlongs June 16. Speed/stalker has the rail, has Lasix added, and Joel Rosario stays aboard.

2nd pick: #7 (Identity Politics) (3-1) - Debuting gelding from the barn of Chad Brown (19% first out) has breezed nine times on the Saratoga training track since it opened up in early May. Three-year-old sold for $350,000 as a 2-year-old in training back in March of 2017 and looks all set to be competitive in his first public appearance.

3rd pick: #6 (Turnstyle) (8-1) - Interesting colt has raced in just under a year. He finished second in both dirt sprints at that time and is bred to like the switch to the grass. He has early speed, is from a capable barn (Alan Goldberg), and it's noted that Irad Ortiz Jr is aboard. Dangerous if ready.
