Aqueduct Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance Optional Claiming
T KRAFT (1) went forward and proved too strong last time out, scoring by one length over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. ACOUSTIC AVE (4) is going well and is knocking on the door, last time out finishing second over 1207m in the G3 John A. Nerud Stakes at this track (Dirt) and only 0.3 lengths from the winner. Has good early toe so he should be handy in the run. Will prove tough to beat. RADIO RED (6) was a winner two back in stakes class at this track (Dirt) then was competitive last time when fourth over 1207m in the G3 John A. Nerud Stakes at this track (Dirt), beaten only 2.5 lengths. Form at this track is solid. One of the main contenders. IGNITE THE LIGHT (3) is back from a spell of nine weeks. Scored a determined win at his final run last preparation at this track (Dirt) over 1408m. Makes plenty of appeal.
