Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (FIN DE SEMAINE) (3-1) - He rallied to finish fifth here facing $50K claimers going 8.5 furlongs on the grass Aug 5. It was his first since June 19 and his connections bring him back quickly and have him spotted nicely in this starter-allowance.

2nd pick: #3 (Nat's Nation) (7-2) - Lightly-raced and fast from the gate, he's racing off a three month break, is facing winners for the first time, and is stretching out in distance. Working fast and this gelding is a strong win candidate if ready.

3rd pick: #9 (Broken Up) (5-1) - Stretch runner has been competitive in both grass starts at this level since coming of seven week break in early June. He has back races that make him a strong win threat at a square price.

4th pick: #4 (Woody's Folly) (9-2) - No-speed type has rallied to finish second in his last pair, one each on turf and dirt. He's stringing starts together following a series of layoffs and should be closing fast.
