Top pick: #7 (DREWMAN'S MOMENT) - Presque Isle invader was a winner earlier this year at Tampa in an "off the turf" contest on April 2. Filly raced well in Pa. on July 29 in her first start in 3 1/2 months, but raced poorly there last out. Drops to the bottom, runs third off the layoff, and is the horse to beat.
2nd pick: #2 (La Pescadita) - The probable favorite finished second at this price August 1, then finished a pace-setting fourth last out going 11 furlongs on the grass in an allowance contest. Drops and is very much a win candidate.
3rd pick: #1 (Don's Profit) - Midwest shipper has some closing ability and veteran trainer Don Combs (who won the Kentucky Derby many years ago with "Dust Commander") will stretch this filly out in distance for the first time. Ships from River Downs off a solid second-place finish and can factor today.
