Aqueduct Race 5 - Race 5 - Allowance Optional Claiming
ATARAH (9) finished a 8 length fourth on dirt at Aqueduct two back then followed up with a minor placing on dirt at Aqueduct over 1408m nine days ago. Flavien Prat who has three wins when partnering stays on. Sure to run well. I'M MO JOKE (2) really dug deep to score by 2 lengths three runs back at Fairgrounds Turf (Turf) before filling a minor placing at her last two starts. Nicely placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. CAPTURING (6) is an honest type who impressed last time, scoring by 2.25 lengths over 1106m at Keeneland Turf (Turf). Has been in super form this campaign, finishing in the money at each of her three starts. Expected to be competitive. WITHOUT CAUSE (3) returns from a spell of three-and-a-half months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when sixth over 1006m in Listed grade at Gulfstream Park Turf (Turf). Has the pace to settle in the leading division. One of the better hopes.
