Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (ROSE DUNN) (7-2) - Filly is one of a pair entered by trainer Brian Koriner. A $200K purchase, she hasn't raced since winning her debut going 5.5 furlongs on the dirt Dec. 9 at Los Alamitos. Heavily bet that day, she paid $2.80. Sophomore is working above average, has the rail, blinkers on, and she can win this with an alert break from her inside draw.

2nd pick: #7 (Marilyn's Smile) (5-2) - Filly has won six of fifteen overall and has been sharp in three straight grass sprints since coming off a bit more than five month layoff May 5. Stalker draws a trouble free post and is a strong win candidate.

3rd pick: #6 (Fantasy Heat) (3-1) - A lightly raced 3yo, daughter of 'Unusual Heat' has been sharp in both grass sprints and was a 'head' better than 'Marilyn's Smile' here at this level and distance July 19. She doesn't have any speed, so she'll need some pace help to win this.

4th pick: #4 (Shylock Eddie) (4-1) - The second filly from the Koriner barn, she runs evenly just about every time she's in action. 4yo is capable of factoring from close range, and three starts back she missed by a 'head' at this level and distance April 28 at Santa Anita.
