Aqueduct Race 3 - Race 3 - Starter Optional Claiming
PRETTY BOY MIAH (7) registered his first win last start over 1308m at this track (Dirt), getting home by 6 lengths. Sparingly raced and has more to offer. Ricardo Santana Jr was in the saddle on that occasion and retains the mount. Capable of making it two on the trot. JUST ASAP (2) resumes after a break of five months. Did win at his only other first-up run when on debut, scoring over 1408m at Ellis Park. Capable of playing a major role. BOLD LOVE (5) raced on the speed last start and battled on well but found one better over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Expected to be in the finish. SOUTHEASTERN (1) showed good early dash last start and held on well to finish 3.5 lengths back in second over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Likely improver with strong prospects. Something for the Multiples: MO SPICE (6)
