Race Tip

SAFALOW'S MISSION (3) turned in a decent effort last start to finish third over 7f at Aqueduct. Has the talent to take this out. VIN SANTO (6) could only manage sixth on dirt over 1m at Aqueduct in a then couldn't find the top-three on turf over 1m1/2f at Aqueduct more recently. Better placed and can make amends. XCELLENT MEN (1) was out of the money two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he settled well back over 6f at Monmouth Park, beaten 8 lengths into fourth. Needs to be at his best to beat this field but he deserves another chance. BOBBY THE TANK (8) has not won for a long while. Last raced on June 28 when beaten 7 lengths into fourth at Aqueduct (Dirt) over 1m after being in the firing line on the turn. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot return to winning ways.
