The first few might be chalky and Rosario is set up for a big day.Didn't account for any scratches so will look again at anyone that draws in.Originally posted by DDT
Race 1
3-Thug Daddy is probably going to win the first at a short price.Have to think 5-So Lonesome can run some for Capuano to bring him to the Spa instead of his home base.He is a good overall trainer on his circuit that is top notch with firsters and don't recall him doing this.
Race 2
Don't know what to make of race 2 as everyone is evenly matched and their #s don't hint at who is going to improve the most.
Race 3
Race 3 has 2-Absolute Beauty who did win last time in 2nd start /going turf to dirt/and route to sprint.I guess at 6-1 would be the best option but fave Hot Stones #s say she is capable of better.
Race 4
1-Insolvent and 4-Corinthianna are both interesting at 6-1.The 1s sire is Big Brown who is off to a great start with first turf plus her figures have steadily improved to better than anyone in here.They were on dirt though.The 4 was claimed by Asmussen who is awesome off the claim and she won her last race with ease so can run a lot better.
Race 5
4-Clear Pasaj may get a good trip on the lead if the 2 doesn't regain form.Otherwise Willet and Miss Valentine will run past .
Race 6
1-Ruthless Alley is tied for the best figure horse in the race and 6-1 and 3-Proffesor Chaos is more than playable at 30-1.Ruthless Alley Scratched
Race 7
Might be a hanger but 1-Strike Accord 10-1 is fast enough to win this if not.2-Flirtacious Spring 10-1 would be next choice.Then Mela Dramatically.
Race 8
I guess the Clement horse 2-The Blonde Peque is going to be tough as a lukewarm fave but can throw in 1-Sundae School 15-1 and 3-Acquisition 20-1 to juice up exotics.The 3 may even be worth a play on the class rise.Last two races are very good if she can just repeat it up in class.
Race 9
3-Lady Of Gold looks good at 3-1 but hate favorites.5-Broken Trust Fund 5-1 looks best rallying into slow paces last couple but Catalano not doing so well in NY so a little weary.Pletcher is winning everything and 1-Path Of Dreams 8-1 did same rallying into slow pace last time.Last you don't set the pace and win at Delaware so you can excuse 9-She's Not Lazy 15-1 last race.
Race 10
Will go with 1-Bi Light Of Day 8-1///2-Ivana Pucker 12-1///7-Curlin N Twirlin 6-1Comment -
After looking at the 6th again because Ruthless Alley scratched 5-Coach AJ 15-1 caught my eye.Looks slow because has been setting the pace against much tougher.Have find a 3rd to go with 5-Coach AJ 15-1 and 3-Proffesor Chaos 30-1.Comment -
All of the speeds scratched out of the 6th.Comment -
One of many things I don't understand about horse racing ... Sar R2 #1 TapitinSilver ... 16-1 in a 5 horse race. Gives way early and falls behind by 10+ lenghts. Way out of it and Jockey beating the crap out of her down the stretch. Why???Comment -
Give the punter there $2 dollars worth and teach the horse something in the process.Originally posted by MadisonComment -
Looked like the horse didn't learn much if anything.Originally posted by SlimpickensComment -

Good call on the longshot She's not Lazy. Nice score at 18/1.Comment -
Thx guys....doing pretty good todayComment -
And Proffesor Chaos can pop at a big price with a fast pace...Same for Strike AccordComment -
Thats why you had him in the derby wars contest that we just tied in? Dang Mike, lol. She was actually my 2nd best bet of the day. Oh well.Originally posted by Easy-Rider 66Comment -
I liked the horse, but his reasoning put it over the top. Also needed to take a shot at that time. Good contest.Originally posted by SlimpickensComment -
Yea I picked her last night. But yes good contest for us as we ended up burrying the field with that horse. Alittle suprised nobody took the longshot in the last that won.Originally posted by Easy-Rider 66

60K Pick 6 carryover into Saratoga's Wednesday card that is basically a Pick 5 because Amberjack looks very tough in the Albany(9th).With a scratch or two in the 7th it could even become a Pick 4.Probably have to go pretty deep in the 8th and 10th though.Comment -
Already done with Saturday and the card is very good.If MLs hold there could be a parade of nice prices .
9-Transparent 10-1 in the Travers for meComment -

Think 3-Sam's Buck looks good at 12-1 coming up in the 5thComment -
lol opens as the 5-2 fave ...nvmComment -
