Top pick: #4 (BLUEGRASS DREAMER) - He's really stepped up his game of late and has gone (4-3-0-1) here in four straight local grass appearances. Speed/stalker finished fourth last out facing a bit tougher and can take this on the slight drop.
2nd pick: #2 (Starlighter) - He was an easy winner here going wire-to wire facing $430K 4l claimers in an "off the turf" contest July 21st. Race was his first since may fourth and it represented a career best. Major factor today.
3rd pick: #9 (Rosa Pantera) - Veteran grass performer is (17-3-3-5) on this course and comes into this having gone (4-0-1-3) since late June. Grey gelding has enough early speed to not let this post hurt his chances too much.
