Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (LEAH'S DREAM) (9-2) - This veteran mare ships back from Monmouth where she was an easy gate-to-wire winner by just over 5 lengths at this trip on a sloppy track May 12. Heavily favored (7-10) that afternoon, it was her 6th win in eight starts dating back to late September. Price play has a good shot despite moving way up in class for this $100K state bred stakes.
2nd pick: #6 (Pauseforthecause) (7-2) - Very consistent filly has been freshened up for the past two months. Broman home bred by 'Giant's Causeway' has gone 13-3-3-6 in 2018-19, is stakes placed, and her stalking style fits the field. A late threat.
3rd pick: #2 (Holiday Disguise) (2-1) - Filly is one of two entered by trainer Linda Rice and the pair race uncoupled. In a rarity, both are out of the same mare and that makes them 1/2 sisters as the duo are by different stallions. This multiple stakes winner has won 7-of-15 overall and has banked $568K. She's back in with fellow New York breds following a pair of sub par efforts against 'open' stakes company and is an obvious contender.
4th pick: #5 (Midnight Disguise) (5-2) - No-speed type is the second from the Rice barn and 4yo is cutting back in distance after a second-place finish here at a mile in a $200K state bred stakes May 27. Stretch runner would love a fast and/or contested pace to help her late charge out.
