Bet this race at Diamond SportsTop pick: #7 (LIBBY'S TAIL) (3-1) - She was stakes placed as a 2yo in 2016 and just missed in the G1 Frizette at Belmont Park Oct. 8. She missed by a 1/2-length here at this level and distance Aug. 6 in her first start since Jan. 15. Working fast, she gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #6 (Luz Mimi) (4-1) - She has more experience than most and has been sharp in both previous starts on 'of' tracks. In career best form, strong finisher is a win candidate.

3rd pick: #8 (Kirby's Penny) (5-2) - She's won half of her eight starts and was an easy winner here facing weaker July 29. Speed/stalker just missed in her only previous race on a sloppy surface and must be left in the win mix.

4th pick: #2 (Stay Fond) (6-1) - Lightly raced, she's cutting back in distance after finishing 2nd here at this level going nine furlongs July 31. Rounding into form, she'll need a fast and/or contested pace for anything more than a minor award.
