Aqueduct Race 9 - Race 9 - Maiden Special Weight
VOLATILE SITUATION (2) Lost ground in the run home when 5th last start at this venue. Is capable of a resurgence and can find a nice position from the draw. Winning hope. MAX MONEY (3) First up and good performance to run into 3rd first up last preparation at Saratoga. Showing consistent performance in races. Strong chance. BAKUTO (1) Ran on strongly when 2nd last start around here and fitter for debut run. Drawn beautifully. Don't overlook. LORD KING (6) Applied plenty of pressure when 2nd beaten by 1 3/4L last run here. Has early speed and positions nicely. Don't dismiss.

Odds of $3.75 and looked outclassed when 5th last start at this venue. Is capable of a resurgence and gets a favourable draw. Good career start. Very capable of taking this out.

First up and came on strongly to finish 3rd first up last preparation at Saratoga. Honest performer putting a tidy record together. Rates as one of the key chances.

Back from a spell. Started $6.50 and edged past some when finishing 4th last start around here but will be facing a significant drop in distance. Will struggle against these.

Was amongst the placegetters when 2nd last start at this venue and having second career run. Jockey Manuel Franco and trainer Brad H Cox form a proven partnership. Can't leave out of your calculations.

Resuming after a break. Did well to run 3rd beaten by 3 1/4L last time at the track and fitter for debut run. Finishes off strongly. Should be included in your exotics.
