Saratoga Race 4 - Race 4 - Mdn Special Weight
STORY OF RORY (8) Made considerable ground when 2nd beaten by 3L last start at Laurel Park. Coming to a new trainer. Performing honestly since coming back from a spell. Looks to be value. DAISY DOO (3) Displayed good finishing speed when 3rd last run at Aqueduct. Will be motoring home late. Been in the money 2 from 2 attempts this preparation. Can take this out. HOT OFF THE BEACH (7) Resuming after a break. Ran on strongly when 2nd last run at Aqueduct and having second race start. Goes close. SIR WALTA (2) Back from a 36 week break. Honest run on the speed before fading to finish 3rd beaten by 2L last time at Aqueduct and has a good draw. Could give a show.

First up after a break of 58 weeks. Threw down a serious challenge last run at Aqueduct and was a debutant last start. Should muster plenty of early speed. Keep safe for trifectas.

Resuming after a break of 36 weeks. Gave a strong sight when 3rd last time at Aqueduct and gets a favourable barrier. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Capable of winning this.

Racing fresh today after a 33 week spell. Odds of $36.00 and below par when 8th last run at Aqueduct. Likely to get back in the run. Most likely not today.
