Wednesday


Race 3
4-Madaket Millie 5-1 - First time dirt after 2 turf races ...might wire them with Javi up.
5-Got Lucky 1-1 - Got burnt on this one at FG so biased.Huge drop from last 3 races though.
2-Equilateral 4-1 - Nothing out of the box for this race exacta.This one could be really good if he likes a dry track better than the 2 wets ones he has run on so far.
Race 4
5-Poliziano 5-1 - Should get better than the ML due to unknown trainer.Also should sit a dream trip.
4-Shot To Win 8-1 - Another pace setter with J Ortiz in the irons.
7-Santa Elf 7-2 - Mainly against the fave 2-Betweenhereandcool who takes an alarming drop after first bad race in a long long time.
Race 5
5-Verismilitude 4-1 - When Asmussen works them fast look out.Pretty confident this one comes out running.
2-Girlbouttown 8-5 - Is legit but not sure 8-5 legit.
8-Prett Like Me 6-1 - Has speed to sit right off pace and make first run.
Race 6
1A-Artemis Agrotera 2-5 - Maybe an all Hushion double to go with the Pletcher double earlier.Outclasses the field by light years.
Race 7
9-Lateen 20-1 - Finally a wide open race.
11-One More Song 10-1 - The pick of the C Clements.He can win long on turf first time out.
1-Treaty Oak 5-1 - Think this one might end up being favored with connections but can't leave out.What is the point of posting chalk every race.
Race 8
5-Shankopotomus 15-1
3-Bernie The Maestro 6-1
7-Bemata 7-2
Race 9
CHALK 4-7-2
Race 10
6-Summerdale 15-1
8-Hot Squeeze 3-1 - Very likely winner but no chalk
2-Royal Jest 12-1



Could be a lot of short price winners

Tired of taking horses I know are going to get bet in half so trying something new and looking for horses I think will hold their ML or go off higher

Hey Mike, just curious about what PP's and or software you use. I've used Drf and now I'm using Bris. Thanks.

Hey Mike, just curious about what PP's and or software you use. I've used Drf and now I'm using Bris. Thanks.

I use TimeformUS for pps.

They have a guy who makes their figures Craig Milkowski that I have been using for a long time.TFUS just launched last year and hired him to do their figures.Before that he just made figs himself and sold them to a limited # of people.IMO he is the best fig maker out there.

For trainer/breeding/angles/etc... DRF formulator is probably easier to use.

[mikemca]

I don't like Bris at all.

[JayTris07]

I tried TimeFormUS a few times. Maybe its just me but I find it too confusing, with all the different colors it seems like a lot to take in. I guess I'll it just takes getting used to. Thanks Mike.

[mikemca]

Saturday
Saratoga
Race 1
4-Indy's Million 12-1 - Maybe there is something I'm missing but this girl looks like the best horse to me and is 12-1 ML somehow.
5-Rapid Repair 2-1 - Has dirt figures that are fastest but who says they translate to turf.
1-Magnolia Lane 6-1 - May just want more ground and gets Javi and the rail.
7-Sky Bird 20-1 - Could take a flier on this bomb.Zito sucks with grass horses and not exactly bred great so should be a big price.Reports say he likes the sod though.Going 4 deep in EX.
Race 2
7-Hidden Vow 4-1 - His race 2 back would demolish this field and now gets big switch to Castellano.
3-Macagone 6-1 - Exploded to win maiden last out with the addition of blinks.
1 or 2- Have to pick one of the faves
Race 3
9-Competitive Edge 9-5 - Race comes down to if this one draws in.Firster may be Pletcher's best baby this year.
8-Aldrin 1-1 - Can't use both the 9 and 8 but if 9 fails to get in have to use this one.1/2 to Tapit!
5-Captain Moss 8-1 - Quality Road colt for Zito makes his debut.I have been burnt before by Zito's fast looking babies but I have a feeling the Quality Road's are going to be precocious.
3-Today's Agenda 5-1 - Dutrow is under rated juvy trainer.
Race 4
This is a really weal field for NY MSW.Would be more looking forward to playing against a dominant winner when returning next.I guess 3-Tom's Vision 5-1 is the best price I can make a case for.
Race 5
3-CJ's Awesome 4-1 - Should get a good trip setting pace with 2.
8-Forever Thing 10-1 - 2nd off bench for T Pletch.Probably best value in race at ML.
2-Rocket Time 5-2 - This one has a lot of potential for the future but not much between these at this point.
Race 6
9-State Flag 5-1
4-Knights Nation 6-1
10-Bernards Galaxy 12-1 - Could surprise going this far for first time in 37 race career.
Race 7
3-Celebrated Talent 8-1 - Horses like this usually run their best right off the bench and then go backward.His best can win.
1-The Big Beast 7-2 - Is legit and haven't seen his best race yet.
4-Twang 4-1
Race 8
4-Coup De Grace 3-1 - Thinking he goes off 2nd choice behind the 8.
8-Captain Serious 4-1 - Seems like these 2 are the main players.
5-Tiznowforamerica 10-1 - At ML is an overlay...Should be 3rd choice with what's left.
Race 9
5-Distorted Beauty 8-1 - Progressive , could be much better first time long in only 4th start.Most upside in race.
6-Lady's Lunar Luck 5-1 - Alvarado/Kimmel are as good a tandem as almost anyone.
2-Palace Dreams 5-1 - Think the ML is a little short but expect this one to come out running despite trainers stats.
Race 10
7-Wicked Strong 2-1 - Chalky race..think the top 4 on the ml will make up the tri in some order.
Race 11
6-Elroi 7-2 - Closed well into a slow pace last out and won't take much to beat this hungary field.
12-Trainingforsuccess 10-1 - Comes out of same race as 6 and made almost same run.If they switched posts this race I'd like him on top.
10-Poliziotto 5-1 - Is just better than this field but has a layoff and probably other issues that worry.

[harthebar]
