Saratoga Race 14 - Race 14 - Mdn Special Weight
LIMITED EDITION (6) resumes from a spell of 12 weeks. Looked close to a win before that break, finishing off with a minor placing over 1710m at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic). Good effort to launch last prep when in the money at Gulfstream Park Turf over 1609m. Has ability and sure to prove tough to beat. BLAZING TIGER (3) pushed forward when resuming last time and boxed on to finish 2 lengths away in second over 1609m at Aqueduct Turf (Turf). Will be up on the speed from the low draw. Goes up a rung or two but he is good enough to figure in the finish. BULL SHOALS (7) drifted back and never threatened at his latest appearance on April 22, finishing tenth over 1811m at Keeneland Turf (Turf). Expecting to see him turn things around.
