Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #8 (SHE'S GONE D'WILD) (8-5) - She's switching to the dirt after finishing 2nd here at this distance when sprinting on the grass June 20. 3yo draws well and should break her maiden if she handles the main track.

2nd pick: #2 (Charlie Roads) (4-1) - This grey filly debuts for trainer Lee Thomas, seven of 34 (21%) with first-time-starters in 2019-20. He has Tim Thornton aboard, and that combo has won with seven of their last 12 (58%) when teamed up.

3rd pick: #4 (At Once) (9-2) - Another making her first starts, this homebred by 'Colonel John' worked fast here July 4, and trainer Pat Deveraux, 16% with debut stock since Jan. 1 of 2019, has Diego Saenz aboard.

4th pick: #5 (Customs Bella Ella) (8-1) - She raced evenly following a troubled break to check in a distant 4th when debuting Feb. 12 at Delta Downs. One of two older runners entered, she may get a share with a better beginning.
