Saratoga Race 9 - Race 9 - Mdn Claiming
MIDTOWN MISCHIEF (3) will strip fitter for this after running below expectations first-up at Aqueduct Turf (Turf), finishing fifth and beaten 4.5 lengths over 1207m after being in the firing line on the turn. Has the talent to find the winners' list. AVERY'S WONDERLAND (4) is a six-start maiden who finished seventh at her most recent outing over 1207m at Aqueduct Inner Turf (Turf). Among the top chances in what looks a most suitable race. GARDEN OF GRACE (7) is yet to break through after 12 starts. Last time out was fourth, beaten 16 lengths, over 1207m at Saratoga (Dirt). Finds a nice race and can measure up. DANCING MIRACLE (5) was in the firing line on the bend and finished second last time over 1106m at Gulfstream Park All Weather (Synthetic) when resuming from a spell, beaten one length. Will trim down second-up. Suitably placed so anticipating another big run.

Second-up. Promising on debut made ground from midfield; 3rd of 10 at Saratoga on August 20 over 1106m, 4 len behind Celtic Dawn carrying 54kg at $5.70. Went for a spell before returning 5th of 12 at Aqueduct Turf on June 21 over 1207m, 4.5 len behind Moonlight Ready with 55kg at $3.67. Strips fitter and is an excellent winning chance.
