Top pick: #6 (LEXIE ARLEEN) (5-1) - Consistent filly moves up a bit in class in her first off an Ed Freeman claim. She set a pressured pace and held to finish second here July 23 racing for an $8,000 price tag. That ran her record on conventional dirt to 6-2-2-0 and she can take this at a square price.

2nd pick: #7 (Norastone) (7-2) - She's been competitive in three of her last four starts and was a 1/2 length behind 'Lexie Arleen' here July 23. Speed/stalker draws a nice outside post at this trip and has worked sharply 3-times since her last outing

3rd pick: #4 (No Tricks for Jack) (9-2) - Old timer has won 25 of 48 overall and is 8 for 20 racing on conventional dirt. Mare is going first off a Bob Diodoro claim (26%) and has worked three times since the barn switch.

4th pick: #2 (Smooth Talker) (3-1) - Mare enters off a career best here July 23. Racing second off a two month break, she rallied to win going away' for an $8,000 price tag. She defeated both 'Lexie' and "Nora' that day and is an obvious win candidate, but at a short price.
