Aqueduct Race 1 - Race 1 - Maiden Claiming
COUNTER MOVE (6) resumed from a spell last start with a sound second over 1408m at this track (Dirt) after being prominent at the corner. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. SPORTS HERO (5) raced on the speed from the outset last start and finished third, beaten 5.5 lengths, over 1408m at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to take this out. NO FILTER (2) has not raced since his debut back on October 19 when he finished fourth over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Plenty of scope for improvement. BELLAMY (3) finished 7 lengths from the winner in fourth at his most recent outing over 1408m at this track (Dirt). Finds a suitable assignment this time and can improve. Something for the Multiples: MACH SCHNELL (4)
