Aqueduct Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance Optional Claiming
MOMMY'S TURN (3) returns from a break of 11 months. Consistent performer last prep whose most recent appearance resulted in a win over 1710m at Saratoga Inner Turf. Expected to bring the good form from last campaign to this contest. DOWNTOWN CHANNEL (5) produced a reasonable effort after being in the firing line on the corner to finish 1.5 lengths away in fourth last start over 1710m at this track. That followed a first-up win at this track. Has her share of ability. Hard to beat in this suitable race. SWEETEST PRINCESS (8) missed the frame on dirt over 1609m at Aqueduct two back then filled a minor placing last start on the same surface at Aqueduct, beaten 0.8 lengths over the 1609m journey. Jose Lezcano who has two wins when partnering stays on. Expected to measure up. SARATOGA SNOW (1) was in contention on the corner and finished second last start at the first run back from a spell over 1710m at this track (Turf), beaten 0.8 lengths. Will benefit from that outing. Suitably placed so anticipating another strong effort.

Resumes after a break of eight months and has been in the money when fresh before. Finished off last campaign second of 8 at this track November 6 over 1710m, 4 len behind Gallant Greta carrying 54.5kg at $4.35. Previously first up; second of 10 at Saratoga Inner Turf June 5 2025 over 1710m, a 0.3 lengths behind Tralee Girl with 53.5kg at $3.15. Certainly one to consider.
