Think Dry Martini has a big shot in here. Won the Cornhusker impressively last out, gets Cornelio back up and should be closing late. I don't like the 1-2-3 finishers from the Foster. They were all staggering home that day.

Can't believe Albarado jumps off Flashy Bull to ride Student Council, although he does ride first call for Neil Howard, so that's likely the reason. But usually in Grade 1s, the jocks go for the better horse/money.

I'm taking a strong lean to #2 Papi Chullo ... This horse hasn't beaten top tier horses and there are several in here that have easily finished in front of him ... Last two races look like very easy wins with fast represenative times although very small fields ... Will go off higher than his ML line.

There are tons of great races this saturday. I will be using Papi Chullo also.His last race impressed me and he has a good lifetime record at the spa.That being said its a wide open race.

Changing my pick to #6 Sun King 12/1 ML ... Finished 2nd by a nose to Invasor in this race last year.

I'm scared of Sun King as well. He likes Saratoga and the first two starts of the year were tighteners for sure. I'm playing Dry Martini and Sun King WPS, with Magna Graduate and Diamond Stripes in some exactas.

I was all over Sun King that day..

I'm going with a price again this year,

#4 Fairbanks 20-1 ML

Fairbanks won by 9 lengths in his only start at Saratoga.

Has a bullet work ON THE TRACK

Has a ton of room to improve (owners paid 1.8 million for him)
