Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (OFF LIMITS) (7-2) - Irish import is one of three fillies entered by trainer Chad Brown and they all race as separate betting interests. She's moving up in class after defeating weaker here at this distance June 1. It was her first race in eight months and an impressive seasonal debut. Strong finisher has a shot to win right back.

2nd pick: #8 (Ancient Secret) (5-1) - Lightly-raced New York bred is another of the fillies from trainer Chad Brown. She ran evenly here in a $125K stakes for fellow state breds at this distance May 29 in her first start since Oct. 15. A G2 winner at Saratoga in late July and a stretch threat with her best.

3rd pick: #9 (Conquest Babayaga) (3-1) - The third member of the Brown contingent, she just missed here in a G3 stakes going seven furlongs June 8. Lightly-raced and talented, that was her first loss on the grass following three straight wins since switching to the turf last September. Win candidate. .

4th pick: #2 (On Leave) (5-2) - The probable favorite, grey daughter of 'War Front' has won four of her eight lifetime starts all on the grass. She's three for four at Belmont including a pair of stakes wins last year. A beaten favorite in her seasonal bow at Pimlico in a G3 May 20, she should factor today, but at a short price.
