Top pick: #7 (PRAISE BAND) - Daughter of "Unbridled's Song" is improving and working well here for her first race since finishing a pace-setting at Belmont Park July 1st. Effort was her best to date and she gets the call in a competitive contest.
2nd pick: #1 (South Shore) - Filly by "Arch" has a race over the track and it was a strong one. Phipp's table runner set a solid pace and held to finish second to a filly who has a bright future. Contends today.
3rd pick: #5 (Normative Appeal) - Price play attracts Dominguez for the first time off an even effort last out that saw her finish one and a half lengths back of "Shore". She's worked fast since and races second back off a two month layoff.
4th pick: #2 (Conquesta) - Has the inside post and this daughter of "Empire Maker" comes off a career best when finishing a close-up third here July 20th. She had an outside post that day and the move to the hedge is a big plus.
