First day, big fields, will be looking to play angles and prices.
Race 1 #5 Westmoreland 10/1 ML ... Turf race, Garrett Gomez off a 4/1 ML to take this horse for a low profile trainer with very decent numbers, blinkers on, last race comment rank early ... #6 Noah A 2nd
Race 2 #6 Forest Prince 7/2 ML ... Maiden race with mostly first time starters ... Sire (Mineshaft) has never had a winner with just 6 starters ... Dam won first start ... Pletcher and J Velazquez.
Race 3 #2 Lord Snowden 9/2 ML ... A closer in a field of early speed horses ... #5 Sir Silver Fox 15/1 2nd ... Nice bullet work since last race
Race 4 #8 Egypt Lane 6/1 ML ... 2nd time on the turf with a 2nd the 1st time ... Edgar Prado was on 1st turf try and is back for this race
Race 5 #1 Task Force 15/1 ML ... Taking a flyer on a long shot from post 12 ... 2nd lifetime start with a 2nd first out by a head in a mile and 1/16th debut ... 1st time turf and Desourmeaux
Race 6 #9 Archie Boy 10/1 ML ... Back on the dirt ... Early speed with several others in here but needs to sit just off the pace ... Probably a real ambitious pick ... #12 Explosive Count 3/1 ML 2nd ... Best figures and record by far ... Ramon Dominguez 1st time ... Coming off 2 easy wins
Race 7 #2 Winaway 4/1 ML ... 1st time turf in 9th start ... Sire has never had a turf winner in 27 offspring starts ... Dam was 3 for 3 on the turf ... If this horse can run to his dirt form he can win this race
Race 8 #3 Garfine 5/2 ML ... Ok, 1 chalk for the day ... Gomez and Pletcher
Race 9 #1 (POE) New York City Girl 4/1 ML ... Gomez and Pletcher again ... Grade 3 Schuylerville ... 2nd start ... Won 1st time out by 12 at 1/2 ... Other part of the entry had 1 start and won by 11 ... Most of the horses in this race have raced once with a win ... Hoping for 5/2 ... This is my best bet
Race 10 #3 Papa's Kara 6/1 ML ... Wide open affair taking a shot with Prado ... Coming off a nice win last time out also with Prado on 6/8 ... Several nice works since
Good luck to anyone playing Saratoga today ... The last time I posted an entire card, hardly a nag lifted up a hoof.
