Saratoga Race 9 - Race 9 - Allowance

ONEBIGBEAUTFULBILL (3) impressed when successful as favourite on debut over 1207m at this track (Dirt) five weeks ago. Has plenty of upside and should go on with it. MO FOR THE KING (2) looks close to a win, finishing in the placings at his last couple of runs including a third most recently over 1207m at this track (Dirt) when beaten 2 lengths. Should camp just off the leaders. Will prove tough to beat. MAX MONEY (6) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by 4 lengths over 1609m at this track (Dirt). That continued the very strong form this campaign, with two wins from three runs. Expect a bold showing. TRICKY BUSINESS (1) was beaten 10 lengths into fifth over 1609m at this track last time out. Suitably placed so can turn things around.

Comes here off a 29-day let-up. At the latest run ran second last in a small field at this track on July 11 over 1609m, 10 len behind Sunday Boy with 55kg at $2.22. The start before that eased back early on ran second last in a small field at Monmouth Park in LR on June 13 over 1710m, 16 len behind Baby Vino carrying 53.5kg at $8.40. Beaten comfortably last time out but this suits.

Form hard to fault. Returns from a 37-day let-up. At the latest run 3rd in a small field at this track on July 3 over 1207m, 2 len behind Anyway carrying 57kg at $2.10. Before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 9 at this track on June 7 over 1408m, 1.3 len behind Long Pour with 57kg at $3.91. One of the prime contenders in a most suitable contest.

Freshened since claiming his maiden victory on debut; won by 0.5 len at this track July 5 over 1207m defeating Isthereanormalwife carrying 55.5kg at $3.54. Drawn perfectly and he is a top chance.

Resuming after a break; only one run when scored a big 4 len win at Aqueduct May 10 over 1207m defeating Hurricane Kaz with 55kg at $3.64. Should be right in the mix.
