Aqueduct Race 4 - Race 4 - Starter Optional Claiming
HAMILTON'S WAY (7) last appeared when he finished fourth over 1710m at Saratoga (Turf) on August 3. Has switched to the B H Cox stable. Looks a winning chance. JURISPRUDENCE (4) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he settled well back over 1609m at Saratoga, beaten 8 lengths into eighth. Ideally placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. ENNIS TOWN (2) was far from disgraced when second last start over 1609m at Saratoga, beaten one length. That followed a win at Saratoga the start prior. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. ENGLISH CASTLE (1) has a moderate winning strike-rate but performed well last time at Saratoga (Turf), finishing third and only 1.1 lengths from the winner at the end of 1609m. Likely improver with top-three prospects.
