Premium Pick

Top pick: #12 (BIG BONNIE) - Filly did well in her first three starts on this circuit and will race today off a half-year's absence. Working fast and speed/stalker draws outside of the other pace. The top pick.

2nd pick: #7 (Lover of Dreams) - She's finished second in her last pair, both at this level. Can stalk and bid, a strategy that looks right for this group. Daughter of "Pure Prize" goes third off a layoff and trainer Dom Galluscio names his go-to rider (Eibar Coa) today.

3rd pick: #2 (Heartsforhaley) - Has the rail and both speed/stalking ability. Ground-saving post could lead to a board finish.

4th pick: #3 (Ten Carrot Nikki) - Probable favorite drops after a pace-setting second-place finish on July 2, racing for $25K. Looks like the speed of the speed and she could be tough if given an uncontested lead.
