Aqueduct Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance Optional Claiming
BERNIEANDTHEROSE (1) First run back after break of 45 weeks. Started off strong but faded towards the end when 3rd beaten by 3 1/2L last start at Saratoga. Strong hope. ROMANTIC DANCER (2) Folded up in the straight when 4th last start around here. Capable of a strong comeback and will try to take advantage of the alley. Facing stiffer opposition. Solid place bet prospects. FILLY FREEDOM (5) Finished with intent when 2nd beaten by more than 6L last time here and putting a tidy record together. Racing in stronger company. Can measure up to this company. ALWAYS PRACTICAL (6) Finished 2nd last run at the track but challenged by more formidable competitors. Stable is in form. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this campaign. Keep in mind.

Fresh from a 45 week spell. Set a strong tempo before fading to place 3rd beaten by 3 1/2L last start at Saratoga. Should be going forward early. Will be competitive.

Odds of $2.62 and didn't find the line when 4th last start around here. Capable of a strong comeback and drawn nicely. Producing consistent results since resuming from a spell. Has claims.

Showed strength on the speed initially before fading at the end 3rd beaten by 8L last start around here but facing a stronger group of contenders. Will struggle to compete in this race.

Finished well when 2nd last time at this track and promising career start. Manuel Franco has a good track record with the Chad C Brown stable. Expect a forward showing.
