Saratoga Race 3 - Race 3 - Starter Optional Claiming

SHEER WILL (5) went to the paddock after scoring at her last appearance three-and-a-half months ago over 1207m at Aqueduct (Dirt). Rates highly and should take some beating. MURSAL (2) pushed forward and went on to record a determined win last start by a nose over 1207m at Aqueduct (Dirt). Meeting a deeper field this time but she cannot be underestimated. PROUD FOOT (4) last appeared five weeks ago over 1207m at Aqueduct when she finished second. This is her first run for the Ilkay Kantarmaci stable. Comes here with definite top-three claims. SWEET NOTE (7) resumes today after filling a minor placing at her last appearance at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 1609m on May 8. Among the better hopes.

Form hard to fault. Comes here off a 36-day let-up. At the latest run favourite; won by a nose at Aqueduct June 25 over 1207m defeating Proud Foot with 56kg at $3.03. The start before that 3rd in a small field at Aqueduct on June 11 over 1408m, 4 len behind Coquito carrying 56kg at $2.81. Ideally placed to make it two on the trot.
