Saratoga Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming

VALENZAN DAY (2) was thereabouts last time out when second at Parx (Dirt) over 1673m, beaten 0.1 lengths. Should be at his peak now. This is his optimum trip with five wins from nine starts and should be hard to stop. WHENLOVETAKESOVER (5) drifted back and never threatened when tenth last start over 1106m at this track (Turf). Beautifully placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. BREW PUB (1) finished fourth two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 1207m at this track, beaten 8 lengths. Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. HE'S GOT THIS (7) was beaten 8 lengths into fourth in a 1609m contest at this track two weeks ago. No surprise to see him in the mix.
