Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #8 (RESCUE CAT) (6-1) - Lightly-raced filly is one of two entered by trainer George Weaver and the pair race uncoupled. Speedy 3-year-old has been on the sidelines since Sept. 12 when she finished a close up fourth here at this distance facing tougher. She's working steadily, drops into a claimer, and returns with Lasix administered.

2nd pick: #9 (Maybry's Conquest) (3-1) - The second of the Weaver fillies missed by a 1/2 length here at this level and distance May 18. Only her second start, she probably would have won if not for some traffic issues in mid-stretch. Grey 3-year-old completes a strong hand from the barn.

3rd pick: #7 (Irish Actor) (5-1) - No-speed type rallied to finish fourth last out while four lengths in back of 'Maybry's Conquest.' Her trainer (Linda Rice) is having a solid meet and this 4-year-old home bred should be finishing fast.

4th pick: #2 (Stormin Saratoga) (4-1) - Daughter of 'Kitten's Joy' tired badly here in a seven-furlong contest at this tag when debuting May 8. Race was taken off the turf and should serve as a good conditioning effort. Bred to love the grass and her trainer (Todd Pletcher) wins at a 26% rate second-time out.
