Top pick: #3 (FLYNNIE) (7-2) - Veteran mare tired while racing wide on a sloppy surface last out to finish a distant third on July 15th. Six-year-old daughter of "Real Quiet" had just missed in her previous pair and speed/stalker draws a fine post.

2nd pick: #2 (Billygets Arrested) (5-2) - The probable favorite, lightly-raced filly exits the same last race as "Flynnie" and handily defeated her on the "off" going. She has the rail, comes off a career best, and is a strong win candidate.

3rd pick: #5 (Manda Moo) (4-1) - Since coming off several layoffs on March 1st, speedy daughter of "War Pass" has gone 6-2-2-2 and is racing off a two month freshening. There is other speed signed on, but believe she's the main front runner. Three-year-old will take them as far as she can.

4th pick: #1 (Pearl Bay) (9-2) - In career best form, mare has won two in a row here since returning from a half-year's absence July 1st. The two scores were also off a positive trainer change to Cathal Lynch and she's worked well since her latest. Stretch threat.
