Saratoga Race 11 - Saratoga Derby S. Presented By Qatar Racing Stakes

TITLE ROLE (4) has four wins and one placing from six starts this campaign. Scored last start by 0.1 lengths in the G1 Belmont Derby Invitational at this track (Turf) over 1811m after being up on the pace all the way. Genuine type with strong prospects. REMEMBER MAMBA (3) closed off strongly last start to get up for third, beaten a neck, over 1811m at this track when returning from a spell. Jose Ortiz who has three wins when partnering stays on. Sure to run well. WEST END KID (10) raced on the speed last start and battled on well but found one better over 1811m in the G1 Belmont Derby Invitational at this track (Turf). Rates highly on best figures and has the blinkers removed. Should be in the finish. PACIFIC AVENUE (5) ran seventh at his latest appearance over 1811m at this track, clocking in 1.5 lengths from the winner. One of the genuine contenders. Something for the Multiples: THE BIG CON (7)

Comes off a 36 day let-up. Last start was well back until straightening; raced back then made ground from the turn; won by a 0.3 len at this track LR July 3 over 1710m defeating Blinging It Back with 54.5kg at $16.10. The run before that 5th of 8 at Aqueduct Turf on May 23 over 2213m, 4 len behind Versailles Road carrying 54.5kg at $3.17. Doesn't profile as a likely winner.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. Not raced for 36 days. First-up 3rd of 10 at Ascot in the G3 Hampton Court Stakes on June 18 over 2011m, 1.3 len behind Generic carrying 58kg at $34. Second run from a spell 3rd in a small field at Sandown Park in the LR Gala Stakes on July 3 over 2011m, 2 len behind Sallaal carrying 56.5kg at $12. Not far off the winner latest and looks a genuine hope.
