Aqueduct Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Optional Claiming
HONG KONG PHOOEY (7) will find this a little easier than his third on debut five-and-a-half weeks ago, beaten 0.8 lengths at the end of 1207m at Saratoga (Dirt). Likely improver so he should pay to follow. NEIGH BABY (6) knuckled down strongly to get within 0.3 lengths of the winner in second last start over 1207m at Saratoga. Among the leading chances. BOD BEACH (8) is ready to win after collecting his fourth minor placing in a row last time over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Going well enough to overcome the tricky draw. FORT GRIFFIN (4) finished midfield on debut last time out, safely held 6 lengths from the winner over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Will take a lot from that hitout and should do much better.
