Saratoga Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Special Weight
ATLAS A EYE (9) produced a nice effort on debut in better company last start over 1106m at Saratoga (Dirt) when second, beaten 1.75 lengths. Promising type with improvement to come so she will prove tough to beat. SOUTHERN KISS (6) was well in the market on debut last time out and ran well but found one better over 1106m at Ellis Park Turf (Turf). Likely improver who should go well. MISS MA'AM (3) finished out of the money on debut two starts back then was beaten 8 lengths when seventh in a 1710m contest at Saratoga Inner Turf three weeks ago. Tackling a more suitable race this time so she is a major player. EARLY AUTUMN (5) is on debut. By Violence and comes from the John C Servis stable. Watch the market closely.
