Saratoga Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance Optional Claiming

BRAVERTHANUBELIEVE (5) resumes after a break of nine months. Won on debut to launch the last campaign over 1207m at Aqueduct. Leading contender. NINA KAY (6) reunites with Jose Lezcano after scoring with ease over 1609m at Saratoga Inner Turf (Dirt) last time. Should park just off the speed. Expecting a bold showing. QUEENS CAT (3) went fast early and kicked strongly to score over 1207m at this track (Dirt) last time. Winning jockey stays aboard and has sound claims on her best figures. SWEETEST PRINCESS (4) was in contention on the corner and finished third last start at the first run back from a spell over 1609m at this track (Dirt), beaten 3 lengths. Will strip fitter this time. Capable of another bold effort.

Comes here off a 31-day let-up. Most recently 2nd in a small field at this track on August 2 over 1308m, 7 len behind Hot Currency carrying 57kg at $4.73. The start before that raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by 2 len at this track on July 4 over 1308m defeating Lightning Strike with 57kg at $3.60. Doesn't rate well enough.
