Saratoga Race 8 - Birdstone S. Stakes

PARCHMENT PARTY (1) tackled the Suburban Stakes over 2012m at this track last time out when fresh from a spell and was beaten 16 lengths into seventh by Phileas Fogg. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Expecting a bold showing. ANNEXPERIENCE (2) displayed plenty of early toe over 1609m at this track (Dirt) last time and dug deep to score by 3.5 lengths. Meeting a deeper field this time but he is up to the challenge. STARS AND STRIPES (3) finished a 17 length eighth when resuming last start over 2012m in the G2 Suburban Stakes at this track (Dirt). Unbeaten in two starts when second up. Among the winning hopes. INTERCEPTOR (6) fought on for third last start over 1811m at Churchill Downs (Dirt), beaten 1.5 lengths to add to some fine recent form. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time.
