SARATOGA WEEKEND (5) finished fourth when resuming two runs back then improved last start but found a couple better over 5½f at this track, beaten 5 lengths. Nicely placed to find winning ways. THE SAXON STORY (7) remains a maiden after nine runs. Was one of the favoured runners last time but could only manage to finish fifth over 6f at this track (Dirt) after he was well back on straightening. Likely to be in the finish in this suitable assignment. WATERMELON CRUSH (3) is back after a break of six months. At the last run before the layoff he finished seventh over 1m1/2f at Penn National (Dirt). Has ability and is a leading player. CHICAGO CHARLIE (4) was safely held on debut last start, finishing 6 lengths behind the winner in fourth over 5½f at this track (Dirt). Will take a lot from that experience. Must be respected.
