What do you think?

Not sure you were asking anyone in particular but I am leaning against Venatrix. Best bred of the entry for Turf and while she stumbled badly, she didn't seem to like the poly and didn't seem to like the turf at Saratoga on 9/1. This is a very tough race. I am looking at the 4 Strike the Bell who will like the added distance and was checked while on the inside which isn't a great place to be checked for a first time starter. But I'm also looking at the 6, Warm Shower who will love the distance, great breeding and seems to have rounded into shape with that final work. I just don't like the 1 month break in works. Finally, I am killing myself with the 9 Seeking Luck. Blinks, which I wouldn't be surprised if Coa advised Tagg to do, has okay works for this and showed some speed in her first race. Tough group of horses.
