Aqueduct Race 4

Toboggan S. Stakes

Prize Money: $213,980

DOC SULLIVAN (1) has scored at his last two starts, most recently by one length over 1609m in Listed grade at this track (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the solid form this campaign, with three wins from six outings. Sure to go well again. MAXIMUS MERIDIUS (7) is a talented galloper who is unbeaten in two runs this time in, the latest in Listed grade at Parx (Dirt) over 1408m. Had plenty on his rivals last time and will go close again. BE YOU (3) is an honest type who impressed last time, scoring by 2.25 lengths over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Is going well this campaign, recording two wins from three starts. Has to be respected. LIGHT THE WAY (2) showed good early speed then led into the straight last start before fighting on to finish second, beaten 1.75 lengths, over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Well-placed and can feature in the finish.

The race before that favourite; ran on from midfield and won by 1.75 len at this track December 4 over 1408m defeating Exact Estimate with 55.5kg at $1.91. Genuine chance on the back of the last effort.

The run before that scored a big 6 len win at Churchill Downs November 15 over 1408m defeating My Noble Knight carrying 55.5kg at $7.82. Comes into this in ordinary form. Can't enthuse.

Comes off a 41 day let-up. Last start ran on from midfield and won by 0.8 len at this track December 27 over 1308m defeating Bold Journey with 55.5kg at $4.63. The run before that ran last in a small field at this track in the G3 Forty Niner Stakes on November 2 over 1609m, 27 len behind Bishops Bay carrying 55.5kg at $18.32. Latest form makes this a pretty tough assignment.

Second run back. Comes off a 57-day let-up. First-up after three months won by 1.75 len at this track December 11 over 1207m defeating Vettriano with 54.5kg at $3.42.
