Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (SUMMER SWEET) (7-2) - Expensive ($550,000) daughter of 'More Than Ready' ships up from Monmouth where she was beaten 1.5 lengths at this level going 5 furlongs June 24. One-run type is facing fellow New York breds for the first time, has a ground-saving post, and Joe Bravo is aboard for the fourth straight time.

2nd pick: #6 (Saratoga Treasure) (4-1) - Very lightly-raced 3-year-old rallied to finish third here at this level and distance June 21. Strong finisher is making back-to-back starts for the first time and is a late threat.

3rd pick: #9 (Orchid Party) (8-1) - Long shot drops in class after a wide trip here going 7 furlongs in a $100K stakes June 24. It was her first ever on the grass after going 7-3-1-1 in dirt sprints. Think she'll be competitive and you get the combo of trainer Rudy Rodriguez and jockey Irad Ortiz Jr at a square price.

4th pick: #12 (Shrink) (20-1) - Another long shot, speedy mare tired after pressing a quick pace here at this level and distance June 21. It was her first race in 7 months and she most likely needed the effort. Five-year-old may hold down a share at a very big price.

5th pick: #5 (Dreams Are Pazible) (20-1) - Speed/stalker is another longshot who is dropping in class. Grey filly raced evenly here in a $100K stakes June 24 and could land a minor award at long odds.
