Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #1 (POSSE UP) (4-1) - Lightly-raced filly is trying the grass for the first time. She was an easy maiden winner. going six furlongs on a fast main track April 3. It was her first start in eight months and a career best. In her follow-up start facing tougher May 21, she tired at this distance on an 'off' track in a contest that was switched from grass to dirt. Brought back quickly, barn drops her in class and she breaks from the rail.

2nd pick: #6 (Glitz N Glam) (5-2) - The probable favorite, she's fast from the gate and is another dropping in class and racing on the turf for the first time. In a winning barn (Brett Brinkman), he wins at a 20% rate on the dirt to grass angle.

3rd pick: #7 (Wild Apointment) (4-1) - Blinkers go on filly who is racing first off a Karl Broberg claim is 135 for 397 (34%) over the past 17 months. A formidable stat for one of the largest barns in North America. She's another trying the grass for the first time.

4th pick: #2 (Ithirtyconnection) (5-1) - On the sidelines since August, she's the only horse entered with a previous win on the grass. That came here at this distance for a $20K claiming price last July. She can factor at a square price if ready.
