Saratoga Race 9 - De La Rose S. Stakes
SANDTRAP (4) is a talented filly who was well held last time out in the tougher race won by Classic Q over 1609m at this track, beaten 3.5 lengths into sixth. Should enjoy a good run just off the speed. Best form puts her right in this. AND ONE MORE TIME (3) finished fifth over this distance, beaten 3 lengths, at her latest outing. Has a very strong record at this journey, scoring on three occasions from four starts. Has the pace to settle in the leading division. Expected to be in the finish. DEEP SATIN (9) finished fourth last start over this distance in the G1 Just A Game Handicap at this track (Turf), beaten 2.5 lengths. Has a very good record here including two wins from four starts. Capable of running a big race. SCALABLE (11) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1408m at Saratoga, beaten 9 lengths into fourth. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time. Something for the Multiples: AWESOME CZECH (8)

Comes off a 44 day let-up. Last start won by 0.5 len at Saratoga Turf LR June 3 over 1710m defeating Midnight Concerto carrying 56kg at $3.69. The run before that won by a nose at Aqueduct Turf April 24 over 1609m defeating Matilda with 56kg at $5.36. Won't be beating too many of these home.
