Finger Lakes Race 3

Tin Cup Chalice S. Stakes

Stake: $80,014

SILVER KNIGHT (4) is racing well. Scored at this track (Dirt) two back then finished second, beaten 1.3 lengths, over 1207m in Listed grade at this track (Dirt) at the latest appearance four weeks ago. Winning rider Shaun Bridgmohan sticks. Well placed and should be in the finish. PLAYINMINDGAMES (5) wasted no time getting off the mark as favourite on debut over 1106m at this track (Dirt) five weeks ago. Promising type who can go back-to-back. BIG POPPY (1) went forward and gave a great sight when third over 1207m at Listed level at this track (Dirt) last time out. Is yet to miss the frame from three starts this campaign, including a win. Capable of going well. BAJAN SUGAR (6) got off the mark over 1207m at this track (Dirt) last start, scoring by a nose. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Re-unites with Jacqueline A Davis who was on board last start. One of the likely contenders despite the step up in grade.
