Premium Pick

Top pick: #4 (ABACO) - Beautifully bred filly from the Phipps stable is improving with each start and finished a rallying second here at this level going 8.5 furlongs June 19. Race was her first in almost two months and she'll stretch out in distance today as she tries this 10-furlong trip for the first time. Appears to be the type that can run "all day" and she should win this with a stretch rally.

2nd pick: #5 (An Absolute Ten) - Improving daughter of "Rock Hard Ten" was only a half length back of Abaco last out and she should also appreciate this 10 furlong trip. Three-year-old has a near bullet drill six days ago and must be considered a win candidate.

3rd pick: #7 (Team) - Lightly-raced filly by "Empire Maker" ships here from Monmouth where she just missed at a shorter trip June 4th. Home-bred has some talent, but has had slow starts in both appearances and will need an alert beginning to have any shot at the win.
