Saratoga Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming

CITY BLOCKS (3) lines up on the back of a 4 length fourth over 1207m at Aqueduct. Has solid form at this course, scoring on two occasions from three starts. Perfectly placed to score. JACKSON'S DIXIE (8) turned in a moderate run over this journey last time out, settling in a rearwards position and failing to make an impact when seventh over 1207m at Aqueduct (Dirt). Finds the right race this time and can get the job done. JACKIE THE JOKER (1) missed the frame as favourite last time over 1408m at this track (Dirt) after she had won two races on end. Should camp just off the leaders. One to consider. TOP OF THE TABLE (6) returned from a spell two-and-a-half weeks ago when she was beaten 6 lengths into sixth over 1207m at Finger Lakes. Fitter so can figure in the finish.
