Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (RUNNINGWSCISSORS) (3-1) - This colt ships from Emerald Downs in the state of Washington where he's finished 2nd in a pair $50K sprint stakes facing 'open' company. He runs off a private trainer change to Tom Amoss, a 27% winning angle. He has him in with fellow New York breds and has Jose Ortiz aboard.
2nd pick: #6 (Daddy Knows) (2-1) - He's been competitive in all four starts going longer and broke his maiden here going nine furlongs in an 'off the turf' contest July 12. A home bred by 'Scat daddy,' this gelding is a win candidate.
3rd pick: #3 (Bustin Hoffman) (8-1) - He rallied to finish a distant and non-threatening 4th sprinting at Belmont facing $50K 'open' starter-allowance company June 15. The gelding lost all chances when he had problems at the break in his first start in six months. He's worked fast since, has blinkers on, and trainer Gary Gullo replaces apprentice with Irad Ortiz, Jr.
4th pick: #1 (Kazmania) (6-1) - A lightly raced home bred, he stretches out a furlong after a wide and even effort here July 13 at this level going six furlongs. This colt is racing third back off a layoff, has the rail, and Kendrick Carmouche replaces Luis Reyes.
