Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (TIZ COFFEE) (9-2) - Filly has won three of her last five and has been competitive in her two defeats. Her speed/stalking fits this group, and she finished 2nd here facing similar types in her only previous local appearance (July 14).
2nd pick: #1 (G Q Covergirl) (3-1) - One of several that have a lot of early speed, she hasn't raced on the dirt since going three for four on it a long time ago. Mare has the rail, is in fine form on the grass, and is dangerous today.
3rd pick: #3 (Uno Trouble Maker) (7-2) - Another with a lot of early speed, she tired last out in a one-race turf experiment and moves back to the dirt where she's won six of 14. 4yo drops in class and is a threat if able to avoid a speed duel with 'G Q Covergirl.'
4th pick: #7 (Rockin Ready) (4-1) - She's gone 9-1-4-0 on the grass and is making her dirt debut. She may grab a minor award with a late move in this contest with a lot of speed signed on.
