Saratoga Race 3 - Race 3 - Mdn Claiming
OURS TO START (10) 3yo first starter sired by Upstart for trainer George Weaver. Jaime Rodriguez adds value. Watch the betting. CHRIS'S SONG (1) Finished 4th last run at Aqueduct. Can show a better performance this time and gets a favourable draw. Stable is in form. Strong chance. ALWAYS HONEST (5) Was found wanting late when 4th last time at Aqueduct. Should muster plenty of early toe. Has to be included. MO MAHOMIE (9) Put in a competitive run when placing 2nd last start at Finger Lakes. Must be considered.

Started $5.50 and ran 4th last run at Aqueduct. Can show a better performance this time and has minimal work to do from the alley. Good chance in this.

Odds of $10.00 and didn't attack the line when 7th last run at Aqueduct but will try to take advantage of the gate. Very hard to have.

Started $14.00 and couldn't maintain the pace when 7th last run at Aqueduct but was a debutant last start. Linda Rice stable are having a great run of late. Considerable improvement needed.

Odds of $9.50 and weakened to finish 5th last time around here. Has early speed and positions nicely. Large claim helps. Hard to see it being competitive today.

At $5.50 gave away some ground when 6th last start around here. Should muster plenty of early speed. Chad C Brown has been training plenty of winners recently. Would rather look at others.

Was $4.00 and overrun when 4th last run here. Irad Ortiz Jr is a key booking. Could feature here.

At $53.00 didn't find the line when 10th last start at Aqueduct and back to a shorter trip. Likely to get back. Hard to see this being competitive today.
