Saratoga Race 5 - Race 5 - Mdn Claiming
OLD TIME ROCKNROLL (6) resumed from a spell last start with a sound third over 1408m at this track (Dirt). Ready to go a couple better. ASKED AND ANSWERED (8) missed the placings last time out when beaten 18 lengths in fifth place over 1811m in the G2 Jim Dandy Stakes at this track (Dirt). Rates a top chance and can take this out. STREAM IT (7) lines up for the first time since April 10. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1609m at Aqueduct. Among the better hopes. OVECHKIN (3) finished 28 lengths from the winner in ninth at his most recent appearance over 1408m at this track (Dirt) after he gave away a big start. Expected to feature in the finish this time.
