Aqueduct Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming
CUGINO (2) is back at the races for the first time since December 14. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last time in work over 1811m at this track. One of the genuine hopes in the race. DATAMAN (7) scored two runs back then was well supported last time but could only manage to finish eighth over 1710m in the G2 Eclipse Stakes at Woodbine after he had travelled in a rearwards position. Has the talent to take care of this field. FOREVER SOUPER (5) is a consistent performer with two minor placings from three starts this campaign. Continued the trend at the most recent appearance when third over 1710m in stakes class at Monmouth Park (Turf) after he was handy all the way. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. STRAPPED (9) built on a nice third two starts back at this track (Dirt) with success over 2012m at this track (Dirt) five weeks ago, getting home by 1.3 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can make it back-to-back successes. Something for the Multiples: NOTED (3) EXACT ESTIMATE (6)
