Saratoga Race 9 - Race 9 - Maiden Special Weight
KING PUCK (7) returned last time with a solid second at Aqueduct (Turf) over 1207m after being prominent at the corner. Hard to beat in this suitable race. ASKINGFORAFRIEND (6) was out of the money when resuming from a spell last start over 1207m at Aqueduct, beaten 3.5 lengths. Fitter and sure to run well. LONG POUR (11) is on debut for the George R Arnold Ii stable. Three-year-old colt by Tom's D'etat from Pursuing Justice. Can measure up. Betting crucial. CHRIS'S SONG (10) was prominent at the bend and finished third last time over 1207m at Aqueduct (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten 9 lengths. Will trim down second-up. Placed to advantage and can run a bold race.
