Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (HEATED VERDICT) (6-1) - Price play raced evenly when beaten almost five lengths here at this level and distance May 19. It was his first race in a half-year and he probably needed the start. Four-year-old has the rail, some back class, and a sharp half-mile work June 15.

2nd pick: #5 (Dr Coy) (9-2) - One of two entered by trainer Linda Rice and the pair race uncoupled. Lightly-raced, he broke his maiden going seven furlongs May 11. Claimed that day by Rice for $40K, this 3-year-old has plenty of room for upside.

3rd pick: #8 (Bellows) (6-1) - Colt is racing third back from a 4.5 month layoff and is dropping in class and is on the grass for the first time. Bred for the surface, stalker is in a good barn (Graham Motion) and he has John Velazquez aboard for this one's local debut.

4th pick: #9 (Stormin Maclean) (10-1) - NEW gelding is racing first off a Brad Cox claim (39%) and a subsequent two month freshening (25%). Lightly-raced, he's facing winners for the first time.
