Saturday's 10th race from Saratoga is the G1 Ballerina for fillies and mares traveling seven furlongs on the main track.
#5 QUALIA (4-1) owns four wins and two narrow misses in her
brief career. She runs well fresh, sports a local bullet, and projects a decent
tactical trip at a hint of a price.
#2 Warbling (4-1) blew the break as the
favorite in a local Graded sprint Aug 8. She is a Stakes winner at this
distance and should revert to stalking tactics with a clean start.
#3 Jessica
Is Back (7-2) beat Warbling in a G1
sprint at Calder in July and show finisher Dubai
Majesty came back to score. Marty Wolfson’s mare has topped the century
mark in 5 of last 7.
#4 Informed Decision (5-2) is a seven panel synthetic
specialist. It makes sense to switch back to dirt as she is expected to attempt
a BC Filly & Mare Sprint repeat at Churchill. Underlaid contender.
