Saratoga Race 1 - Race 1 - Maiden Claiming
KAVANAUGH (4) settled well back and failed to come on in the straight last start when fifth, beaten 23 lengths, over this course and distance. Has the talent to take this out. CYBERBEAST (3) was ridden quietly then made some inroads and finished 3.5 lengths away in sixth last time out over 1207m at this track two weeks ago. Tackles a longer journey this time. Among the chances. BELMONT UNION (2) was always well out of his ground when 11 lengths from the winner in seventh over 1911m at this track last start, a less impressive effort than his fourth at this track the run before. Finds an easier assignment and can take this out. OTTO NIPOTI (5) finished midfield last start on debut over 1207m at this track (Dirt), beaten 10 lengths when in the market. Will take a lot from that hitout and should do much better.
