Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #8 (SCAVENGER HUNT) (9-2) - Filly has fine early speed, is dropping down in price, and adding blinkers. She draws a good outside post at this seven-furlong distance and gets top billing.

2nd pick: #6 (Petra Dee) (8-1) - Away since Sept. 10, filly was never involved at any point when debuting in a sprint on the Tapeta surface at Golden Gate Fields. Working well at San Luis Rey Downs, her new trainer (Dan Morgan) drops her in class and runs her on conventional dirt.

3rd pick: #5 (Specter) (5-2) - The only first time starter, $110,000 daughter of 'Ghostzapper' is working steadily for trainer Rick Mandella. Leading rider Flavien Prat is signed on, and this filly should factor against a rather weak field for the level.

4th pick: #4 (My Carmela) (4-1) - Lightly raced, she was away slowly and never involved here facing tougher May 28. It was her first off a Carla Gaines claim, and she drops her way under the $50K she claimed her for. May grab a share in this easier spot.
