Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #4 (DRYNACHAN) (3-1) - Debuting daughter of the late 'City Zip' has been in steady training here for Chad Brown (19% first out) since early May. Bred for both speed and early success, she enters off a sharp half-mile gate breeze July 16. $130,000 purchase can win this if ready.
2nd pick: #1 (Too Foo for You) (7-2) - She has both early speed and a big experience edge on most all of the others. Filly set a quick and pressured pace facing 'open' company at Belmont June 15 and held gamely to finish 2nd to a winner who won a stakes next out. She has the rail, is in with fellow New York breds, and is a strong win candidate. I could have easily made her the top selection.
3rd pick: #10 (Bank Examiner) (5-1) - First-time-starter enters off a solid half-mile gate breeze at Belmont July 13. From a capable barn (Jeremiah Englehart), he has Irad Ortiz, Jr. aboard.
4th pick: #5 (Shady Shady Shady) (8-1) - Home bred is another who enters off a sharp half-mile gate breeze at Belmont July 7. Trainer Michelle Nevin is having a very strong year, and it's noted that John Velazquez is aboard.
