Saratoga Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming
DAIQUIRI SOMMELIER (2) Back after a 27 week break. Gave away some ground when 6th last start at Fair Grounds. Expecting improvement here and competing in a less challenging grade. Strong chance. ABRIGADO (5) Made no mistakes when winning by a margin of just over 7L last start at this venue and getting better in recent performances. First race for a new trainer. Must respect in this event. TOGA D'ORO (4) First up after a break. Rattled home nicely into 2nd beaten by 3/4L last run at Aqueduct but stepping up to a higher level. Respect. NEIGH BABY (6) Ran home strongly to win last time at the track. Jaime Rodriguez is in form for this stable. Will be motoring home late. One of the hopes.

Jumped at $16.00 and sub-standard effort when 8th last run here but stepping down to a lower level. Should get going late. Recent form of Linda Rice is strong. Prefer in something a lot easier.

Resumes after a break of 27 weeks. Was $4.00 and folded up in the straight when 6th last start at Fair Grounds. Expecting improvement here. Has a good draw. Capable type.
