Race Tip

MO THE MERRIER (5) resumed from a lay-off last start with a sound third over 1m at Aqueduct (Dirt) after being in the firing line on the bend. Taking on a better field but he is capable of a big run. GADGET PLAY (9) wasn't far away on debut last start over 6½f at Churchill Downs (Dirt), finishing third and beaten 2. 25 lengths. Should improve sharply and this looks a nice race. SIDEARM (2) settled well back last time out and never threatened when 4 lengths from the winner in fifth over 6½f at this track (Dirt). Better than that last start suggests and is open to sharp improvement. STIMULATE (3) has not raced since his debut back on August 23 when he finished fifth over 6f at this track (Dirt). The addition of Lasix when resuming is a noteworthy move.
