Mike Beer’s Aqueduct horses to watch

SADLER’S JOY

Last race: Nov. 9, 8th
Finish: 1st by 1 1/2

Improving 3-year-old made it three in a row, with a third-consecutive new Beyer top, while putting in a strong run to roll over the leaders in a second-level allowance over 11 furlongs. He appears to be on his way to stakes competition.

ARTIES SILVER MINE
Trainer: Reade Baker
Last race: Nov. 12, 7th
Finish: 4th by 3 3/4
Beyer: 98
Four-year-old gelding stepped up to try the Grade 3 Red Smith while stretching out in distance. He acquitted himself well, despite losing position through the turn and then getting caught behind horses through the upper stretch before finishing well too late.
