Aqueduct Race 7 - Race 7 - Allowance Optional Claiming

RAISE THE BAR (3) is a progressive four-year-old entire who resumes from a break of ten weeks, his last appearance being a win over 1408m in stakes class at Sam Houston Park (Dirt). Best form puts him right in this. IGNITE THE LIGHT (6) was well in commission last start over 1609m at this track (Dirt) when second, beaten 2.75 lengths. This trip suits so worth another chance. QUICK TO ACCUSE (4) hasn't won recently but looks close to a breakthrough based on his last start second in stakes class at this track (Dirt) over 1609m when beaten 0.8 lengths. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. One of the main contenders. DONEGAL SURGES (1) started at $2.33 last time but could only manage seventh, beaten 30 lengths, at this track over 1609m. Blinkers come off. Expected to be competitive.

Last start ran last of 7 at this track in LR on March 29 over 1609m, 30 len behind Radio Red with 55kg at $2.33. The race before that won by 1.5 len at this track February 28 over 1609m defeating Dreamlike carrying 55kg at $2.41. Form doesn't read well but he is a genuine chance.
