Saratoga Race 10 - Kelso S. Stakes
BANK FRENZY (11) was quickly into stride over 1811m in Listed grade at this track (Dirt) last time and dug deep to score by 1.3 lengths. Should go forward from the awkward gate. Nicely placed to figure in the outcome. THINK BIG (3) started at $2.15 last time but could only manage seventh, beaten 5 lengths, at this track over 1106m. Deserves another chance. ARZAK (7) was not far away last time out, finishing fourth over 1106m in Group 1 grade at this track (Turf). Won't be bothered by this longer journey. Among the leading chances. DONEGAL MOMENTUM (4) scored last start in the G3 Poker Stakes at this track (Turf) to make it two wins from four starts this campaign. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Can feature in the finish.
