Saratoga Two a Day
Back for more torture. Fantastic card opening Day and continues through the weekend. I'll probably jinx myself but feeling good about the meet. Same format this year as years past. $2 mythical win/place wager on my "Best Bet" and "Best Longshot."
Day 1 Best Bet: Race 1- #7 Giocare Noda barn was hot for a good portion of the Belmont meet. This horse ran well here last year and also ran well for Noda in his lone start in the barn late last year. No less than 4 horses need the lead here and I think this is the best closer. Get the meet off to a good start Longshot: Race 4 #6 Snow's Island This one had all kinds of trouble in multiple spots last time and a less than enthusiastic ride from Kendrick late against a repeat winner who is bound for stakes. It's worth watching the replay. 3rd off the break, and might get lost in the wagering. Good luck! |

Good longshot. If you watch the head-on , he also stumbled in the backstretch and almost went down.

Yeah that was a wild race. Part of me wonders if the loose horse had all the riders being extra cautious

Day 2
Such a tough card with very competitive races. Best Bet: Race 3- #3 Whistlers Honor Worth watching the replay of his last also. Was buried in the stretch and didn't get the most enthusiastic ride. I think Abreu is primed for a big meet and this horse should get him started. He has Biondi to run down. Longshot: Race 6- #4 Danzigwiththestars Feels like everyone in here could win. I'll take a shot with a horse who has shown an affinity for this course in the past and just missed last time against a few in here. SHould get the pace to run at and will get lost on the board. |

Day 3
Another skull buster of a card. Best bet: Race 3- #8 Saratoga Chrome This one actually won a race here last year but was DQ'd. Switched to the Michelle Nevin barn this year, she broke through the gate first time off the break, before the start, showed some early foot and packed it in. I can excuse that effort. Last time, she was totally eliminated early and actually continued on pretty well, finishing not that far behind a few of these. Is due for some luck and should be a fair price. No real knocks against the Brown favorite but the horse that beat her last time isn't much and she doesn't seem like a horse who wants a battle. Longshot: Race 9- #4 Analogy Set the pace two back breaking his maiden, beating a repeat winner and found himself last early last time. He absolutely flew home the last 3/16th's to just miss and IMO ran much better than Credit Event who will be half the price. This is a tough race, but I feel like this one has some upside still. Is drawn well inside and if finds a trip can be right there. |
