Aqueduct Race 11 - Race 11 - Mdn Special Weight
SIR OSCAR (9) is back after a break of 11 months. Went close to a maiden win before the layoff, finishing second at his latest appearance over 1811m at this track (Turf). Opened last prep with a minor placing at Saratoga Turf over 1710m. Can make a winning return. BEFORE THE WIND (6) finished second, beaten 1.75 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1710m at this track (Turf) after he was in the firing line on the bend. Likely improver with bright prospects. TIZLAWRY (7) resumes from a spell of five-and-a-half months. Could only manage to finish fifth at the latest run over 1609m at Aqueduct (Dirt). Nicely placed and can get off the mark. BARGAIN PURCHASE (15) stepped out for his debut over 1207m at Aqueduct (Dirt) back on February 28 and finished seventh, beaten 14 lengths. Not to be discounted with the blinkers applied.
