Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #9 (LEWIS BAY) (3-1) - Home bred daughter of 'Bernardini' set a pressured pace and held gamely to miss by a 1/2 length when debuting here on a muddy track going six furlongs Sept. 13th. Trainer Chad Brown (33% second time out) has worked her three times since and has her traveling an additional furlong in this spot. The horse to beat.

2nd pick: #8 (Storm Petrel) (7-2) - From the Pletcher barn, filly has good early speed and has been in with a pair of tough fields in both appearances. Freshened up since Sept. 6th, she's worked four times since, the last pair sharp half-mile breezes on the Saratoga training track. Win candidate.

3rd pick: #1 (Estelle) (5-1) - Grey filly raced evenly when debuting in a six-furlong contest Sept. 2nd at Saratoga. Godolphin home bred would only need normal second out improvement to factor this afternoon.

4th pick: #7 (Conquering) (6-1) - Debuting daughter of 'War Front' is working fast and has been in steady training since mid-July. Her last two a.m. drills were bullets on the Saratoga training track. Major threat if ready.

5th pick: #10 (Ruby Dusk) (20-1) - Longshot is moving from turf to dirt and shortening up in distance. $120K purchase showed good early speed in her debut here on the grass and may grab a share at a potentially big price in this spot.
