Premium Pick

Top pick: #9 (DEANAALLEN'SKITTEN) - Strong finisher is very consistent and looked very sharp when winning a starter-allowance at Belmont June 16 in her first race in 70 days. Filly is training fast since arriving here and is the choice as she tries this tougher entry-level allowance condition for the first time.

2nd pick: #5 (Mystic City) - Her career was turned around the first time she set foot on the grass. New York-bred by "City Zip" is (11-3-3-1) since that time and just failed at Belmont June 26 at this level and distance. Stalker will be involved from the start and is a win threat.

3rd pick: #1 (Rockettes Escapade) - Grey filly by "Theatrical" is improving, is in the Mott barn, draws the rail, and missed by a neck last out at this level in her first facing winners. Win candidate.

4th pick: #10 (War Clan) - Lightly raced filly by "War Chant" has good early speed and will probably be sent here from her outside post. She always needs some time between her starts, but is capable with her best.
