    heading to Saratoga on 8/18 - seeking advice

    Hey guys,
    Are any capper's tip-sheets worth purchasing at the track?
    And will any of you be posting selections for 8/18 races at Saratoga?

    sorry for the noob questions - just leaning on the forum's experience.

    best of luck in the races!

    Buy the DRF past performance. Not sure what tip sheets they sell at Saratoga, but you can get a free DRF analysis off the Saratoga website written by Dave Lifton. it's under the section called handicapping on left side of the page. GL

    A. No

    Don't play favorites !

    Except maybe Grace Hall.

    I will be rooting very hard for her today.

    My very close friend trains Grace.

    Felt terrible for him.

    Questing ran a super race.

    Kept waiting for Questing to fold up shop after running those early fractions. It will be interesting to see what the Beyer is for that Alabama score.

    I think we all were.

    She deserves all the credit.

    Grace was really out of sync from the 3/8s pole home.

    Hopeful she is OK.
