Saratoga Race 5 - Race 5 - Mdn Claiming
LOTS OF KISSES (9) was one of the favoured runners when fresh from a spell last start but could only manage to finish eighth over 1106m at Churchill Downs Turf (Turf). Was in the placings at her only other second-up run. Can bounce back. SOLAIA (4) was prominent into the straight last time but couldn't go on with it and finished fourth over 1207m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). This looks a nice race so expect her to be right in the finish. R P BYRNE (6) was close to breaking through last time in work, closing the prep as favourite and finishing second at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic) before a three-and-a-half months break. Expect she has come on over the break. Rates highly and is one of the main hopes. IMMORTAL POET (8) is a two-start maiden who finished fifth, beaten 5 lengths, when resuming from a spell last start over 1106m at this track (Turf). Definite top-three hope with plenty of improvement to come.

Back after a long spell. Only had one start last campaign tracked the speed and boxed on steadily 6th of 10 at Gulfstream Park Turf on January 30 over 1006m, 5 len behind Midnight Martini carrying 55.5kg at $13. When resuming last campaign 7th of 9 at Churchill Downs Turf on June 19 2025 over 1006m, 9 len behind Clowning Around with 54kg at $2.71. Likely to make her presence felt.

First-up. Finished off last preparation fourth of 7 at Aqueduct April 9 over 1408m, 6 len behind Ubique with 55.5kg at $2.06. Previously first up; second last in a small field at Aqueduct March 6 over 1609m, 4 len behind Irresistible with 55.5kg at $4.41. Doesn't appeal.

The run before that made ground from midfield; 2nd of 10 at Churchill Downs on May 24 over 1207m, 0.3 len behind Balaclava with 53.5kg at $2.04. Drawn to enjoy a cosy run from an inside gate.
