Saratoga Race 13 - Race 13 - Allowance Optional Claiming
HELEN'S REVENGE (3) First up today. Displayed a good turn of foot when winning last run at Aqueduct but competing in a higher grade. Will be hitting the line strongly. Worth consideration. BATTIS GROVE (8) Was strong on the speed before fading to finish 3rd last start at Ellis Park and promising career start. Will be positive in the run early. Looks promising in this race. BEACH HEIST (9) Narrowly beaten last run at Ellis Park and good career start. Likely to be well placed early. Recent form of the stable is strong but up in class. In the mix. FEMINISM (2) Maintained a solid pace but eventually weakened to finish 2nd last time at this venue and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Needs some luck and is an each way suggestion.

At $7.50 gave away some ground when 5th last time at Aqueduct but has minimal work to do from the draw. Jockey Irad Ortiz Jr rates highly aboard. Place at best.

Overrun late when 2nd last time at this track and will try to take advantage of the draw. Very competitive this campaign and showing consistent performance in races. Watch for a sign in the market.

Back after spell. Flew home to win last run at Aqueduct but challenged by a tougher grade. Flavien Prat is a bonus. Has good closing speed. Definite claims for punters.

Was $18.00 and didn't threaten when 7th last time at Churchill Downs but ideal trip as proven previously. Up against a higher level of opposition. Needs a lot of luck to figure in the finish.

Gave them all something to chase to win by 4L last start at Monmouth Park and was a debutant last start. Shows good early pace. Could feature here.

Narrowly denied victory last run at Ellis Park and solid career start. Has early speed and positions nicely. Has run into the money 2 from 2 attempts this preparation. Gets a chance against these.
