Saratoga Race 2 - Race 2 - Maiden Special Weight
MAKI MONARCHY (2) finished third, beaten 3.5 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1609m at Churchill Downs (Turf) after he was prominent at the bend. Faces an easier assignment so he is a major player. BEER RUN (6) resumes today after filling a minor placing at his only appearance last prep at Keeneland (Turf) over 1106m on April 10. Bold showing expected with the blinkers added. CUANDO (8) could only manage fourth two runs back then improved last start but found one better over 1207m at Aqueduct, beaten 2.75 lengths after being in the firing line on the corner. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he is up to the challenge. DONTWORRYBOUTNOTHN (7) was well in commission on his debut over 1207m at Keeneland (Dirt) back on April 25 and finished fourth, beaten 2.75 lengths. Worth following up.
