Finger Lakes Race 1 - Race 1 - Claiming

RETURN THE RING (6) finished 18 lengths adrift in seventh last time at Aqueduct (Dirt) in a disappointing performance. Finds a nice race and can bounce back. MAX FOSTER (2) is usually thereabouts but finds it hard to win, with just three wins from 31 starts. Again tasted defeat last start when seventh over 1106m at this track, beaten 12 lengths. Tackling a more suitable race this time so he is likely to play a big role. SMOOTH TALES (4) has been thereabouts lately without being able to break through, the latest effort a second at this track (Dirt) over 1207m. Among the chances again. BENCH WALK (1) hasn't been able to break through for an extended period, the latest effort a sixth over 1710m at this track (Dirt). Good enough on his day and can play a prominent role.
