Aqueduct Race 1 - Race 1 - Allowance Optional Claiming
MATILDA (2) is returning from a spell of nine months. Finished tenth in the G1 Prix Rothschild at Deauville over 1600m at the first run last prep. Now with a new trainer Chad C Brown. Hard to beat despite the layoff. SAILAWAY (6) is mixing form recently on the dirt. Finished sixth at Aqueduct two starts back then improved to score at Aqueduct over 1811m seven weeks ago. Expected to run well again. CASSIAR (7) is a promising galloper who resumes from a break. Last raced when second over 1609m at Gulfstream Park (Dirt) ten weeks ago which was the only run of that prep. Has never been out of the placings first up from two tries. Strong record with Dylan Davis in the irons, including a win. Capable of running a bold race. GRAYOSH (1) has not appeared since she finished fourth over 2213m in the G3 Long Island at this track (Turf) on November 8. Worth plenty of thought.

Is first-up after a break of five-and-a-half months and has been in the money when fresh before. Finished off last campaign fourth of 10 at this track in the G3 Long Island November 8 over 2213m, 3 len behind Alluring Angel with 56.5kg at $4.02. Previously first up; fourth of 8 at this track in the G3 Beaugay Stakes May 4 over 1710m, 2.5 len behind Dynamic Pricing carrying 55.5kg at $3.80. Likely to be up for this.
