Saratoga Race 7 - Race 7 - Claiming

RED STATE (9) gave a great sight last time over 1207m at Horseshoe Indianapolis when he raced up on the pace and fought on gamely only to be narrowly beaten. Top chance in a nice race for him. TIMAEUS (8) was below his best last time when eighth over 1308m at this track (Dirt), beaten 16 lengths. Nicely placed to turn things around. GATSBY (2) was well-fancied when resuming last start but could only manage seventh, beaten 16 lengths, over 1308m at this track (Dirt). Has a fair record when second up, including four top-three finishes. Expected to feature. FACTUALLY CORRECT (3) scored two back at Aqueduct (Dirt) but was below his best last time when seventh over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Likely improver with top-three prospects.

Comes here off a 34-day let-up. Most recently ran second last of 8 at this track on June 5 over 1207m, 16 len behind Hit The Post with 57kg at $5.31. The race before that won by 2.5 len at Aqueduct May 16 over 1207m defeating Nabokov carrying 56kg at $4.82. Better than that recent lacklustre performance suggests.

Returns from a 35-day let-up. At the latest run made ground from midfield; 2nd of 7 at Horseshoe Indianapolis on June 4 over 1207m, nose behind Dawn At Normandy with 55.5kg at $5.20. The run before that sat on the pace before fading to run last of 7 at Oaklawn Park on April 19 over 1207m, 3.5 len behind Devil's Tower with 54kg at $3.10. Narrowly missed last start and is a top chance again.
