Saratoga Race 2 - Race 2 - Allowance Optional Claiming
PRONGHORN (6) was narrowly beaten at her latest appearance in Listed grade at Oaklawn Park (Dirt) over 1609m four months ago. Sure to make her presence felt. ULTIMATE AUTHORITY (3) resumed over 1308m last time out and turned in a solid effort to finish second at this track (Dirt) when she was always up in the leading division. Won't be bothered by this longer journey. Likely to play a major role. LOW COUNTRY MAGIC (2) fought on well for third last start over 1811m in stakes class at Thistledown (Dirt), making it two minor placings in a row. Well placed in this easier race. Well placed and is one of the main contenders. CONCURRENTLY (7) was well supported when resuming last time out over 1609m at Aqueduct (Dirt) and proved too strong, scoring by 2.25 lengths. Has a strong record at the trip and cannot be ruled out.
