Aqueduct Race 1 - Race 1 - Maiden Claiming
COUNTER MOVE (6) brings consistent recent form, finishing runner-up last start and placing in three of his past five.

Three-year-old colt by Frosted on debut for Gregory D. Sacco. Draws barrier 1 with Edgard J. Zayas to ride. Worth monitoring for any market support on debut. Not without hope.
