Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #10 (VIOLENT POINT) (8-1) - A speedy daughter of 'Violence,' she tired late to miss by just over three lengths here at this level going six furlongs on June 5. It was her first race since Jan. 18, and it earned her a solid figure. She's worked three times since, draws well today, and has a shot at a big price.

2nd pick: #8 (Drynachan) (9-2) - Away from action for 23 months, this daughter of 'City Zip' showed talent in both starts at Saratoga during the Summer of 2018 when in the barn of Chad Brown. She runs off a trainer change to Rodolphe Brisset, is working steadily, and Javier Castellano stays aboard. A major player if ready.

3rd pick: #7 (Amos) (12-1) - A 4yo daughter of 'Candy Ride,' she's racing third back off a three-month layoff and has finished within range in both of her return efforts at this level. This longshot is capable of factoring at long odds with just a bit of improvement.

4th pick: #2 (Moana's Tale) (4-1) - It's a tough call on this lightly raced filly. She was a seven-length maiden winner in her turf debut going 8.5 furlongs on Nov. 15 at Aqueduct, then missed by five lengths facing 'open' company in a G3 stakes Feb. 1 at Gulfstream. Back in with fellow New York-breds, she must be left in the mix.

5th pick: #1 (Dancingwthdaffodls) (6-1) - Veteran mare missed by a 'head' here at this level June 5, then lost by three lengths facing 'open' $50K starter-allowance foes July 3. Back in nine days, she has a ground-saving post, and she can factor if able to avoid any traffic from a tricky inside draw.
