Saratoga Race 3

Astoria S. Stakes

Stake: $251,943

GENA B (2) raced on the speed on debut last start and held on well for second over 1006m at Aqueduct (Dirt). Will benefit from that experience so a big run is anticipated. VERNON VALLEY (6) impressed when successful on debut over 1006m at Aqueduct (Dirt) two weeks ago. Has plenty of upside and should go on with it. SASSY C W (3) has been kept fresh since an all-the-way win over 905m at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Winning rider aboard again and is capable of figuring in the finish. VARINISI (1) showed good early speed over 905m at Evangeline Downs (Dirt) on debut last start and went on to salute by 4 lengths. Must be respected.
