Saratoga Race 12 - Race 12 - Allowance Optional Claiming
ROOKIE CARD (2) broke through for a win last start when second up from a spell, scoring by 5.5 lengths over 1408m at this track (Dirt). Has scope for improvement so a big run is on the cards. SURVEILLANCE (4) progressed nicely last start to finish a close second over 1207m at this track after missing the placings at the previous appearance. Has his share of talent. Hard to beat in this suitable race. WHATCHATALKINABOUT (7) tackled the over 1408m at this track last time out when fresh from a spell and was beaten 12 lengths into seventh by Doc Sullivan. Should be poised just off the lead. Capable of testing this field. WAR STRIDE (1) ran below expectations last time at this track (Dirt), finishing fifth and beaten 16 lengths. Looks well placed so expect a better run this time.
