Saratoga Race 3

Mdn Special Weight

Stake: $192,469

ONEPAC (2) has been in the money at both runs this time in work and the maiden win looks imminent following a good third over 1308m at Aqueduct (Dirt) last time. Among the leading chances. CRITERIA (6) raced on the speed from the outset last start and finished third, beaten 10 lengths, over 1408m at Keeneland (Dirt). Placed to advantage so expect a big run. PARTY ANIMAL (11) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 1308m at Aqueduct, beaten 3 lengths into fourth. Meets a stronger field but he is worth another chance. HERO DECLARED (1) has not been to the races since he finished second on debut over 1308m at this track on August 16. Ticks all the right boxes.

Third-up today. First-up 3rd in a small field at Aqueduct on April 9 over 1308m, 7 len behind Brightline Bullet with 57kg at $6.95. Second run from a spell 3rd of 7 at Aqueduct on May 7 over 1308m, 3 len behind White Smoke Rising carrying 57kg at $9.69. Can improve. Top chance if at his best.

At debut, made some head-way from midfield; 2nd of 7 at Aqueduct on April 25 over 1207m, 2.25 len behind Sea Strike with 55.5kg at $12.11. Encouraging effort on debut and another big run is on the cards.

Comes here off a 29-day let-up. Last start 4th of 7 at Aqueduct on May 7 over 1308m, 3 len behind White Smoke Rising carrying 55kg at $15.91. Before that 5th of 7 at Aqueduct Turf on April 17 over 1609m, 6 len behind Double Act with 54.5kg at $11.86. Good effort last start and can build on that performance.
