Finger Lakes Race 9 - Race 9 - Mdn Special Weight
CONCRETE KID (3) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 0.3 lengths away in second over 1106m at this track (Dirt) when he was prominent throughout. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. LE MIDI'S TREASURE (2) was beaten for speed on debut last start then worked home honestly to finish fifth over 1106m at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic). Improver who looks a major player. BARGAIN PURCHASE (8) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1609m at Saratoga, beaten 5 lengths. Strips fitter and can take this out. BARACUDABOBBI (6) was prominent at the turn and finished third last time over 1106m at this track (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten 4 lengths. Will trim down second-up. Worth plenty of thought.

He is resuming after a 23 months break. Not seen since he finished last of 8 at Saratoga August 15 2024 over 1207m, 26 len behind Very Stormy with 54kg at $21. On debut fourth of 8 at Aqueduct February 17 2024 over 1207m, 8 len behind That's Money with 54.5kg at $14.50. Faces a tough essay.

Second run back. First-up after nearly two years tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 8 at this track on July 8 over 1207m, 4 len behind Army Proud with 56kg at $9.57. Previously second-up ran second last in a small field at this track on October 16 2024 over 1106m, 12 len behind Cast A Coin carrying 55.5kg at $8. One of the top chances.

Four-year-old gelding by Always Dreaming out of Darby Shaw who has taken a long time to make it to the track. Prefer to see under race conditions.
