Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #15 (MADAME MAYBRY) (2-1) - Home bred filly set a quick pace and held to finish second when debuting here at this tag Oct 1. She just failed to hold on and races today with both Lasix and blinkers added. The horse to beat.

2nd pick: #8 (Queen's Tiara) (3-1) - Blinkers go on and she's moving from turf to dirt, dropping in class, and shortening up in distance. In the Pletcher barn (23% second-time out), he wins at a 30% rate on this particular drop and is at 22% when adding the hood.

3rd pick: #9 (First Showing) (12-1) - Debuting daughter of 'Bluegrass Cat' has been in steady training locally since late June. She runs first out with Lasix and noted speed-rider C.C. Lopez signed on.

4th pick: #14 (Wire Dancer) (4-1) - Well backed in her debut, she did not break sharply and rallied to finish third, 2 1/2 lengths back of 'Madame Maybry. In a solid second-out barn (Ralph Nicks 27%), and is a major threat with an alert getaway.
