Aqueduct Race 7 - Race 7 - Starter Optional Claiming
NO BEES (6) resumes after a break of three-and-a-half months. Trying to repeat his debut win over 1308m at Keeneland to kick off last prep. Will be tough to beat. SLAY SADIE SLAY (2) broke through for his maiden win over 1308m at this track (Dirt) last time. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Looks well placed and he cannot be discounted. ANYWAY (5) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 1308m at this track (Dirt) two-and-a-half weeks ago. Will come on following that run and looks a definite threat. THE TOY CANNON (1) got the prize two runs ago but couldn't follow that up last time out when second over 1207m at this track, beaten 9 lengths. Worth plenty of thought.

Form hard to fault. Comes off a 36 day let-up. Most recently 2nd of 7 at this track on January 22 over 1207m, 9 len behind Sculcos Folly with 56kg at $2.65. The race before that scored a big 10 len win at this track January 2 over 1207m defeating Major Bourbon with 55.5kg at $2.58. Likely to play a big role.
