Aqueduct Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming

MERICA'S BACK (4) won last start over 1207m at this track (Dirt), making it two victories from three appearances this time in. Has a high cruising speed. Will play a major role. MASTER FREUD (2) showed good early muster and fought on to finish third when resuming last start over 1408m at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to play a pivotal role. WHAT'S UP BRO (5) last appeared six-and-a-half weeks ago over 1207m at this track when he finished second. This is his first run for the Rob Atras stable. Can measure up for the new barn. FACTUALLY CORRECT (1) returned from a spell three weeks ago when he was beaten 12 lengths into fourth over 1408m at this track. Strips fitter and can turn things around. Something for the Multiples: BEARY FUNNY (3)
