Aqueduct Race 9 - Race 9 - Allowance Optional Claiming
DONEGAL SURGES (4) finished fourth last start over 1811m at this track (Dirt) after racing on the pace for much of the way. Will go forward and is expected to be in the finish. DREAMLIKE (3) was comfortably accounted for when third last time out over 1811m at this track, beaten 4.5 lengths. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Yet to miss the placings from seven starts at this circuit. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot make amends. BRAMITO (8) finished third two runs back at this track (Dirt) then improved last time out to score by 1.75 lengths over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to go back-to-back. RUSSIAN REALM (10) drifted well back last start before storming home to score by one length over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Has a solid record at this circuit. Worth considering. Something for the Multiples: V CRUIZER (9)
