Aqueduct Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming
NAIVE MELODY (3) is a promising galloper who saluted at her only run last prep a year ago over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Is yet to beaten first up from two starts. Likely to push forward and race on the pace. Among the leading chances. HOWLING WIND (7) was comfortably accounted for when fourth last time out over 1308m at this track, beaten 7 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. That followed a win at this track at the previous outing. Nicely placed to take this out. NINA KAY (5) scored two back at this track (Dirt) but was below her best last time when fifth over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Jose Lezcano gets the best out of this four-year-old filly. Nicely placed to make amends. CAROL T (6) was in a different class last time with a dominant all-the-way win by 4 lengths at this track (Dirt) over 1408m. In the mix.
