Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #10 (MIDNITEISALLRIGHT) (7-2) - Daughter of 'Midnight Lute' moves back in with maidens following a pace-setting third-place finish at Belmont July 15 in the $100K Lynbrook Stakes. Given 1.5 months off, she draws a fine outside post at this distance and gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #6 (Chillinwithfriends) (5-2) - The morning line favorite, she raced evenly to finish third when debuting here July 25. Bet down to 5-2 favoritism, filly had traffic issues at the break and was forced into a wide trip. $50K purcahse worked fast Aug. 13 and leading rider Irad Ortiz Jr stays aboard.

3rd pick: #3 (More Mischief) (3-1) - From the barn of leading trainer Chad Brown, $350,000 daughter of 'Into Mischief' pressed the pace before tiring to finish a distant fourth debuting here Aug. 3. Bet heavily in that contest, Brown wins at a 27% rate second time out and this filly is working fast for this attempt.

4th pick: #8 (No Stone Unturned) (8-1) - Home bred by G1 sprint winner 'Bustin Stones' ships from Finger Lakes where she finished second when debuting July 23. Longshot is from a winning barn (Jeremiah Englehart) and has to be left in the mix.
