Saratoga Race 3 - Race 3 - Allowance
FUNNY FACTOR (2) improved sharply on his sixth two starts back at this track (Turf) with success over 1609m at Saratoga Inner Turf (Turf) three weeks ago, getting home by 0.8 lengths after being in contention on the bend. Nicely placed to feature in the finish again. HIGHLANDS WAY (4) didn't do a bad job when second last start over 1609m at Saratoga Inner Turf, beaten 0.8 lengths after he worked home in good style. That followed a win at Saratoga Inner Turf the start prior. Likely improver with strong prospects. FAVORABLE SCENARIO (7) has filled a minor placing at both runs this time in work, working home in good style at the most recent outing to finish second over 1710m at this track (Turf). Cannot be overlooked. CHILLAX (9) was beaten 1.1 lengths into fourth over 1609m at Ellis Park last time out. Likely improver with strong top-three prospects.

Back after a long spell. Only had one start last campaign ran last in a small field at Aqueduct on May 16 2025 over 1609m, 2.25 len behind Jerry's Out carrying 54.5kg at $15.20. When resuming last campaign 2nd of 10 at Dundalk All Weather on November 20 2024 over 1408m, 2.25 len behind Queens Fury with 59kg at $23. Unlikely to trouble the top few.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. Comes off a 57 day let-up.

Last start 2nd in a small field at this track on July 10 over 1710m, 1.3 len behind Elnajd with 57kg at $2.10. Capable of a strong showing.
