Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (FUSI) (6-1) - Price play has been competitive in all three sprints and is stretching out in distance in her first off a Rob Atras claim, a 22% angle. She rallied while wide to finish second here at this level going 5.5 furlongs July 28 and I give her a slight edge.

2nd pick: #13 (Ideational) (8-5) - The probable favorite, she's making only her second start and first since a solid debt last Nov. on the Aqueduct turf facing tougher. In the Chad Brown barn (28% second time out)he drops her into a claimer (22%) and he wins a 28% rate off of long layoffs. An obvious win candidate.

3rd pick: #5 (Eighty Seven North) (3-1) - She finished second here at this level and distance Aug. 1 after hitting the gate at the break. Well bred filly is clearly improving and has Irad Ortiz Jr staying aboard.

4th pick: #9 (Molly's Nighthawk) (8-1) - 4yo has raced evenly while finishing within range in all four starts at this level since returning from a 17.5 month layoff June 27. Blinkers are added and she's capable of factoring.
