At 0h01, on March 25, 2021 By AQUEDUCT

The New York Claiming Championship series returns for the sixth year on Saturday at Aqueduct Racetrack with 10 stakes worth $620,000.

Rob Atras will saddle three starters on the card, led by American Power in the $80,000 Caixa Eletronica, a seven-furlong sprint for 4-year-olds and up that drew a field of six in Race 2

“It’s a really strong program. I think it’s good to have the spotlight on these types of horses, too,” said Atras. “I was hoping to have more horses in there, but we got out-shook on a few. It’s competitive out there right now.”
