Saratoga Race 9 - Amsterdam S. Stakes
LOCAL KNOWLEDGE (2) Couldn't keep the momentum going throughout when 3rd last time here and will try to take advantage of the gate. Racing against tougher rivals. Key player. WHITE SMOKE RISING (5) Reeled them in when winning last start around here and promising career start. Flying this campaign with 2 wins from as many starts but racing in stronger company. Has to be included. OBLITERATION (7) Hit the line well when 3rd beaten by 5 3/4L last time at this venue and up against weaker rivals. Will be pushing for a forward position early. Will be around the mark at odds. SOLITUDE DUDE (3) Didn't attack the line when 7th last time here but stepping down to a lower level. Has shown early pace in races to date. Going well this preparation. Chance to break through and a could give a show.

Good effort to run 2nd last start at Churchill Downs and solid career start. Shows good early pace. Great to see jockey Flavien Prat taking the ride and drawn beautifully. Slight prospect.

Was $16.00 and moved through the field into 4th last time here and competing at a lower level of competition. Very competitive this campaign. Will be motoring home late. Strong prospects.

Picked up late ground when 3rd last time at this venue and matched against lesser competition. Displays good tactical speed. Been in the money each start this preparation. Genuine claims.

Started $43.00 and finished 7th last start here but going down in grade. Likely to be well placed early. Needs to improve.
