Aqueduct Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance Optional Claiming
CHILLAX (2) met with solid support when resuming last start over 1811m at this track (Dirt) when second, beaten 5 lengths. Can bounce back. INTERCEPTOR (3) is putting together some solid results. Finished third at this track (Dirt) two starts back then landed the prize by 0.1 lengths last time out over 1811m at this track (Dirt). Meets a stronger field but he is up to the task. VALENTINIAN (4) finds it hard to win with just one success from 10 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when sixth over 1811m at this track, beaten 13 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. NEON BORDEAUX (1) dug deep to score two runs back then was beaten 12 lengths into third over 1811m at this track (Dirt) last time four weeks ago. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Should give backers a sight.
