Keeneland Race 7 - Commonwealth S. Stakes
SAUDI CROWN (7) showed good pace and went on to score by one length when resuming last time out over 1710m at Oaklawn Park (Dirt). Finds a tougher race but another big run will not surprise. NATIONAL IDENTITY (5) scored by 1.75 lengths last start in stakes class at Aqueduct (Dirt) over this distance after he was in the firing line on the bend. Has found the frame in all four starts at this journey, including two wins. Takes on tougher opposition this time but he is expected to run well. CRAZY MASON (2) resumes today after filling a minor placing at his only appearance last prep in the G2 Cigar Mile Handicap at Aqueduct (Dirt) over 1609m on December 6. Backmarker who keeps coming. Among the main hopes. BE YOU (1) scored last start at Listed level at Aqueduct (Dirt) to make it three wins from four starts this campaign. Stiffer assignment here but is not to be discounted.

Back from a spell. Only had one start last preparation 3rd in a small field at Aqueduct in the G2 Cigar Mile Handicap on December 6 over 1609m, 4.5 len behind Bishops Bay carrying 56kg at $4.01. When resuming last campaign came home strongly from last on the turn; 3rd of 7 at Saratoga in the G3 True North Stakes on June 7 over 1308m, 4 len behind Book'em Danno with 55.5kg at $7.30. Has the talent to take this out.
