Top pick: #4 (SALTAMONTES) - Price play runs for the third time off a 5 month layoff and will go turf to dirt and shorten up a furlong this afternoon. Stalker catches a field with a lot of early speed types and has a solid shot at a nice price in a very competitive contest.
2nd pick: #8 (Sentimental Lass) - Filly was a stakes winner on this surface last Oct., and had no chance in a stakes a month ago after being "bumped" at the start and being sent hard. Race was her first in 7 1/2 months she's working fast and has blinkers added for the first time. Win candidate.
3rd pick: #1 (Fortheloveof Ana) - Longshot draws the ground saving rail and one-run type should get a fast/contested pace to rally into. She finished 4th in a stakes here June 3rd and the winner of that ("Ava K") would be a heavy favorite in this spot.
