Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (WHOOPING JAY) (5-2) - A stakes-placed 4yo, he drops in class after missing by a 1/2-length here in a $100K contest July 26. Very much improved since coming off a long layoff May 17, he'll be tough to beat in this spot.
2nd pick: #4 (Sea of Liberty) (7-2) - A hard-hitting grey gelding, he had a very rough break and trip missing by just over three lengths here at this level July 12. He was sharp in four straight prior to that and is a win candidate today.
3rd pick: #3 (Offshore Affair) (9-2) - Stretch out sprinter has missed by under a length in two straight since coming off a 13-month layoff June 20. He has a flexible style and must be left in the mix.
4th pick: #7 (Jetovator) (5-1) - Much like 'Sea of Liberty,' he had a tough trip here July 12. This gelding has a flexible style and Flavien Prat, who has had success with him in the past, is back aboard.
