Premium Pick

Top pick: #6 (STAYCLASSYANDIEGO) - Claimed out of an easy maiden win at Hollywood Park June 10, filly came back five weeks later and finished third in a $100K stakes on the same surface. Trainer Pete Miller brings her back quickly for this attempt and she faces a much "softer" field. The horse to beat.

2nd pick: #1 (Real Dream) - Hasn't raced since breaking her maiden at Hollywood Park in late April, but she's training steadily for her return and has a very quick gate work on this surface just five days ago. Has good early speed, draws the rail, and is the likely winner if the top pick fails.

3rd pick: #2 (Evelyn's Dancer) - Was an easy winner when debuting June 24 at Emerald Downs and races today off a trainer switch to Troy Taylor (a 36% winning move). Tries tougher today and will do so racing on a synthetic surface for the first time.
