Saratoga Race 3 - Saratoga Special S. Stakes
OBLITERATION (6) was ridden positively and led throughout to score over 1207m in the G3 Sanford Stakes at this track (Dirt) last time. Should be ridden positively again and expected to go very well. EWING (1) wasted no time getting off the mark as favourite on debut over 1106m at this track (Dirt) four weeks ago. Promising type who can measure up again. COMPORT (2) pushed forward last time and boxed on to finish second over 1207m at Listed level at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Capable of testing this field. DAZZLE D'ORO (4) raced on the speed from the outset and went to score by 3 lengths on debut last start over 1207m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Not to be discounted.
