Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #12 (DISCREET IMAGE) (7-2) - The day's Best Bet, lightly-raced filly has excellent early speed and a fine outside post in this grass sprint to use it from. She missed by a length at this level May 20 at Belmont in her first back from a half year's absence and she just missed (a 'nose') when debuting at this meet Aug. 25.

2nd pick: #3 (Mo Promise) (12-1) - Longshot tired while extremely wide going 8.5 furlongs at this level June 30 at Belmont. It was her first start since Oct. 22 and she no doubt needed the effort. Daughter of 'Uncle Mo' is shortening up and working fast.

3rd pick: #6 (Swayed) (6-1) - Lasix is added and owner/trainer George Weaver removes her blinkers. Filly has a flexible style and is racing second back from a year's layoff. May grab a minor share.

4th pick: #2 (Itsinthestars) (9-2) - Very lightly-raced, she's shortening up after a disappointing start going longer June 30 at Belmont. Much sharper in her previous pair sprinting, it's noted that Javier Castellano is aboard for the first time.
