Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #5 (HEAVENLY SUN) (3-1) - Gelding is dropping down in class and moves back to the grass following a pair of back-to-back starts going longer in off the turf contests at Saratoga. He finished a close up fourth here at this distance June 19 facing much tougher and a repeat of that efforts will win this.

2nd pick: #7 (Risky Sour) (12-1) - Longshot has been a maiden for a long time but has been competitive here several times in the past at this distance. He ran evenly at Saratoga last out going longer and has a good chance at a big price.

3rd pick: #4 (Kopper Wired) (7-2) - He ships up from Maryland where he tired at Laurle Aug 12 when facing open company at this tag. In shape, barn shortens him up in distance and has him in with New York breds. The presence of Javier Castellano suggests this shipper was sent here with a purpose.

4th pick: #12 (Irish Hope) (8-1) - The main speed and he draws a fine outside post at this distance to use it from. Gelding gets a ride upgrade and should be involved every step at a square price.
