Saratoga Race 11 - Dk Horse Acorn S. Stakes
GOOD CHEER (2) is a talented type yet to taste defeat after seven runs, the latest over 1811m in the G1 Kentucky Oaks at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Should be further improved and looks a top chance again. BLESS THE BROKEN (5) found the line nicely to grab third last time out over 1811m in the G1 Kentucky Oaks at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Best form puts her right in this. LOOK FORWARD (6) went fast early over 1408m in the G2 Eight Belles Stakes at Churchill Downs (Dirt) last time and went on to score by 1.3 lengths. Has the ability to produce another positive result. SHRED THE GNAR (4) scored last start at Churchill Downs (Dirt) to make it two wins from three starts this campaign. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Can feature in the finish.
