Race Tip

GRATEFULLY (6) is a talented type who recently returned from a break and made it four straight wins, scoring by 4 lengths over 6f at this track. Far too good last time and expected to go right on with it. SARATOGA SPECIAL (4) hasn't raced since finishing fourth over 5f at York on August 20 and has since switched stables. Goes well when fresh with a win and two minor placings from three starts. Should feature in the finish. IMABOUTAGO (3) has returned in good order this campaign. Opened with a third at this track (Turf) two starts back then scored by 0. 3 lengths last time out over 6½f at this track (Turf). Finds a tougher race but another big run will not surprise. AMORITA (2) returns from a lay-off of seven months. Was safely held at the only appearance last prep when ninth over 1m in the G2 San Clemente Stakes at Del Mar Turf (Turf). Among the better hopes.
