Belmont Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming
SARA'S SHAMAN (7) improved last start to finish third over 1609m at Saratoga. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run. JACKSON HEIGHTS (4) got well back over 1609m at Saratoga (Dirt) last time and never threatened, eventually finishing 6 lengths away in fourth. This doesn't look as hard so he can find the winners' list. ICE SHOT (1) showed little early speed last start and failed to come on in the straight when fifth, beaten 6 lengths, over 1609m at Laurel (Dirt). Ideally placed and is sure to give this a mighty shake. SHATTUCK (2) has not won for a long while. Last raced on September 20 when beaten 6 lengths into fifth at this track (Dirt) over 1408m after he got a long way back in the run. Can play a prominent role.

At the latest run eased back early on 5th of 7 at Laurel on September 26 over 1609m, 6 len behind Honor Mags carrying 56kg at $24.30. The start before that won by 2.25 len at Penn National on August 7 over 1673m defeating Passionforglory with 56kg at $3.50. Cannot be ruled out despite a moderate effort last time.
