Saratoga:
Race 3: 7th@ 6.30/1
Race 6: 1st@ 2.40/1 - BEST BET 🔥🔥🔥
Race 9: 1st@ 33.25/1 ☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️
Our Thursday began with Dancingwthdaffdls returning from a brief freshening to finish a lackluster seventh after making a brief bid on the far turn. In Race 6, our BEST BET, Recognize, went to the lead and never looked back, completely exploiting the lack of pace in this race and the speed favoring inner turf course giving us our first winner of the day. We closed the day with a BOMBS AWAY!!! WINNER, as Golden Rocket chased a runaway early leader, switched outside in mid-stretch and exerted supremacy with her final closing kick giving our members a 33/1 winner !!!
Let’s move to Friday’s race card from Saratoga. Fast and firm conditions are expected. Let’s get started!
Friday at Saratoga:
Race 10: Cadillac Candy - 1 pt win (US Morning Line Odds: 15/1)
Two year old turf sprinters close out our Friday race card with a rare feature race being run as a final race of the day. Oxymore is our likely favorite on the basis of a runaway win first time out. There’s more speed signed on today though and the race Oxymore exits hasn’t produced anything positive yet which calls into question the quality of the runners he beat. Cadillac Candy is running for trainer George Arnold who wins with 20% of his turf sprinters and a whopping 19% of stakes races for turf sprinters (11 for 57). I love that Cadillac Candy had to work in his most recent start as he kept grinding away to get the win over Seismic Spirit at Churchill Downs. Value at 15/1 or higher in this spot.
Best of luck to everyone playing Friday’s races from Saratoga!
