Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #9 (VIOLENT POINT) (7-2) - A $180,000 purchase, she was bet down to 3-2 favoritism wen debuting at this level going 5 furlongs on the Belmont dirt June 22. She broke sharply, battled for the lead through fast fractions, then tired to check in a very distant 3rd. Trainer Mark Casse brings her back in 25 days while switching her to the grass.
2nd pick: #4 (Light in the Sky) (2-1) - A debuting home bred by 'Tale of he Cat', she's been in steady training here since early May. Trainer Linda Rice is off to a quick start at the meet (6-3-1-0) and she wins at a 12% rate first out.
3rd pick: #3 (American Song) (8-1) - She's switching to the grass following a pair of even effort on the Belmont dirt at this level. Filly has some early speed, a good post to use it from, and a pair of local drills heading into this attempt. A 'live' longshot.
