Aqueduct Race 8 - Race 8 - Claiming
HEADS IN BEDS (7) is a four-year-old filly who is having her first run for the Saffie A Joseph (Jnr) barn. Finished off last campaign with a win at Del Mar Turf (Turf) seven months ago. Not seen at the trials but looks nicely placed. Should prove tough to beat. LUPINE (3) started this preparation with a win two runs ago. Less impressive last time out when ninth over 1106m at Saratoga Turf, beaten 13 lengths. Finds an easier assignment and can rediscover winning form. ROCKYTA (5) was well in commission last start over 1106m at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic) when fifth, beaten 8 lengths. Deserves another chance. LESLIE'S STAR (9) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing fifth at Aqueduct Turf (Turf) over 1609m after being in the firing line on the corner. Taking on a better field but she is good enough to turn things around.
