Saratoga Race 2 - Race 2 - Allowance Optional Claiming
INEFFICIENCY (1) First up and led throughout to win by a margin of 6L first up last preparation at Aqueduct. Should muster plenty of early speed. Gets the perfect alley. Worth a bet. PLAY WITH FIRE (4) Narrowly denied victory last run at the track but challenged by more formidable competitors. Manuel Franco usually performs well for this stable. Has the ability to take this out. UNREASONABLE (6) Close to claiming the win last run at this track but racing in stronger company. Has plenty of early speed. Right in this. POP ART (5) Finished 4th last run at this venue and up in class. Should race on the speed. Appears well in this.

Back from a break of 48 weeks. At $36.00 tailed off to finish 7th last time at Aqueduct but challenged by less formidable competitors. Racing for a new trainer. Place at best.

First up after a break. Odds of $36.00 and unsatisfactory performance when 7th last run at Churchill Downs. Axel Concepcion and John Alexander Ortiz have a high strike rate together. Very hard to have.
