Saratoga Race 9 - Race 9 - Mdn Claiming
DOWN THE FIELD (5) 3yo debutant by Solomini for trainer Linda Rice. Irad Ortiz Jr is a crucial engagement. Betting is the best guide. TWENTY ONE RED (11) Good effort to run 3rd beaten by 1L last run at Aqueduct. Capable of forward showing and can be competitive. THIRSTED (12) Gave away some ground when 5th last time at Delaware Park and down in distance. Should be rolling forward early from the wide barrier. Strong chance. SPEIGHTFUL STORM (13) Couldn't keep the momentum going throughout when 3rd beaten by 1 1/2L last run at Aqueduct. The wide gate shouldn't be a problem with plenty of early speed. Will be there at the finish.

At $23.00 ran 4th last run at Aqueduct but drawn beautifully. Has early speed and positions nicely. This won't be easy.

Started $6.50 and didn't attack the line when 5th last run at Aqueduct but will try to take advantage of the draw. Has shown early pace in races to date. Could be in the mix.

Jumped at $43.00 and finished 5th last time at Aqueduct and coming back in distance. Shows good early pace. Yet to fire this preparation. Entitled to be big odds.

Jumped at $3.20 and folded up in the straight when 4th last time at Aqueduct but was on debut last time. Expecting to settle positively. This will pose a challenge.

Racing fresh today after a break. Jumped at $12.00 and average performance when 6th last start at Aqueduct but having second career run. Likely to get back. Seems unlikely.
