Looking at No. 7 The Roundhouse in the featured 8th race. Closed from last in the Sanford on Day 2 to just miss the place when deep closers were not faring well. Gets a little more distance today at 6.5 and might be along in time. 7-2 on the morning line but doubt we'll get that. Gomez rides for Pletcher.

Im looking at maybe Kodiak Kowboy and Sargent Seattle, although The Roundhouse is a nice pick as well.
Good Luck Slew

Hmm didnt see that Sargent Seattle was scratched...Comment -
ML favorite, so the 7 likely will be under 2-1. Not much value.

Glad you scored. I've had no luck with Bridgmohan, so I played Prado in the exacta box.
No excuse for the Pletcher horse. He appeared to be lugging in during the stretch run. Not too impressed with either of the 2-year-old stakes races so far at Saratoga.Comment -
I was surprised they didn't DQ Lady Joanne, not for tightening the rail on Octave, but she slammed Lear's Princess right before the wire. Didn't have anyone in the top 3 anyways.
Thing I don't get, Baffert ships Tough Tiz's Sis, and somehow Bejarano guns the horse to the lead knowing Folk was going to press for a mile then quit. That coulnd't have been their strategy, when they could have let Folk go and track her in second or third. Very bizarre ride.Comment
