Race Tip

MAKING DAISYS (2) resumed from a lay-off last start with a sound third over 1m at Aqueduct (Dirt) after being in contention on the bend. This doesn't look as hard so she is one of the main contenders. SCARY JERRY (6) returned from a lay-off five weeks ago when she was beaten 13 lengths into fifth over 6f at this track. Fitter this time. Hard to beat in this suitable race. ACADEMIC FREEDOM (7) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start when she was never in contention over 1m1/2f at Turfway Park, beaten 19 lengths into 11th. Beautifully placed and is sure to play a pivotal role. ALLATOU (1) is a two-start maiden who resumed from a lay-off last start and was beaten 24 lengths when 11th over 6½f at Turfway Park (Synthetic). Bold showing expected with added fitness this time.
