Saratoga Race 10 - Funny Cide S. Stakes
SCRAMJET (5) led all the way to score on debut over 1207m at this track (Dirt) three-and-a-half weeks ago. Promising type who can measure up again. FULLCUP (2) wasted no time getting off the mark on debut over 1207m at this track (Dirt) five-and-a-half weeks ago. Promising type who can go back-to-back. MINDFIELD (3) showed promise on debut last time out when in the money over 1207m at this track (Dirt), beaten 1.5 lengths. Sure to take a lot from that hitout so he should be in the finish. PROFESSOR PLUM (1) won on debut last time out eight weeks ago over 1106m at this track, getting home by one length. Key contender.

Freshened since claiming his maiden victory on debut; won by 1.3 len at this track on July 12 over 1106m defeating Cut Down The Nets carrying 56kg at $4.99. Unlikely to be contesting the finish despite that strong debut.
