Top pick: #6 (PADRONA) (7-2) - Filly ran a career best when finishing second here at this level on July 15th. Speed/stalker is from a good barn (Ralph Martinez), and can take this with just a bit more improvement.
2nd pick: #13 (Act Courageous) (3-1) - She needs one scratch in the main-body to get in, and is a win candidate if she runs. Much improved in her last pair, filly finished third last out, and was 2 1/2 back of "Padrona.".
3rd pick: #9 (Sistine Sanctuary) (6-1) - Well-bred filly tired facing a bit better on July 10th in her first in 14 1/2 months. Trainer Randy Klopp drops her down and has this filly going back-to-back for the first time.
4th pick: #14 (Sneaky Fast) (6-1) - Another on the also-eligble list, filly has been bet in both starts and showed good speed last out before tiring. She drops to a new low, and is making back-to-back starts for the first time.
5th pick: #4 (Red Jammie) (9-5) - She's listed at 9-5 on the morning line, but holds no real advantage, and ships back from Mount Pleasant Meadows in Michigan where she finished second twice facing weaker. Win candidate, but no bargain at a short price.
