Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #6 (SCOUT IT OUT) (3-1) - Speedy and lightly raced, she finished 4th of 12, beaten just over 2-lengths racing at this level going 5.5-furlongs at Saratoga Sep 2. It was her second off a two-month break and first ever on the grass. She gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #11 (Splendid Gold) (7-2) - Daughter of 'Mineshaft' has been competitive in five of six starts, all sprinting on the grass. She was only a long 'neck' behind 'Scout it Out" Sep 2 at Saratoga and the extra 1/16th she travels today is in her favor.

3rd pick: #7 (Super City) (10-1) - Home bred by 'City Zip' skipped the Saratoga meet but is training nicely here for this attempt. When last in action she was improving and was doing so at this level and distance. A 'live' longshot.

4th pick: #8 (Wantagh Queen) (8-1) - Stretch runner is improving and enters off a career best at Saratoga Sep 2. She rallied while wide to finish second that day and was slightly ahead of both 'Scout it Out' and 'Splendid Gold'. Needs to prove that it wasn't a fluke.

5th pick: #3 (Jessica's Ride) (6-1) - Delaware shipper has early speed and ran second there facing weaker, going shorter Aug 17. A career best, filly will take this field as far as she can.
