Default 8/11: Saratoga (Day 17-Cab Calloway)

Traditional 4 weeks lie ahead at the Spa starting today with Sword Dancer, Alabama, Travers/Personmal Ensign and Labor Day Closing extravaganza yet to come. Had lots of winners scattered around Monday but was doomed by bad ticket building decisions. Hope you did OK... Nice morning in the Capital District and a quirky and seemingly challenging afternoon of racing looms. And don't forget that Del Mar has a $178k carryover that begins at 6pm ET.


SARATOGA RACE COURSE


POST-SCRATCHES


1st: CLM/N2L, F&M-3+, 5.5f-T (P3, DD, Super)

Start of a card that features many deep and tricky races, with this one among them. As usual in a turf sprint (and non-winners of 2 lifetimes), can make a case for 7-8 of these, so settle on a race flow scenario that is plausible and include the price horses that can make it pay for you. Note that 2-1 ML fave Flying Sappho (7yo) has NOT improved for Rudy Rodriguez in her two starts under his helm. Should be respected but not feared..

Most Likely: #8 Song for Pupcake 3-1: Third off break.. 4th
Best Value: #4 Auric Girl 8-1: Alternating efforts.. 5th
Next Best: #1 Glory Chaser 6-1 2nd
Exotics Use: #2 Flying Sappho 2-1 WON ($4.90)


2nd: NY-ALW/N1X, 3+, 6f (P4, P3, DD, Super)

Tremendous amount of speed signed on here, so unless strip is carrying frontenders, meltdown distinctly possible..

Best Value: #8 Conflicted 8-1: Was better on main before trio of turf tries.. 7th
Most Likely: #7 One Note Samba 5-2: Of speeds, best shot with repeat of last.. 2nd
Next Best: #9 Zone Breaker 6-1: Earned nice fig in MSW debut; Got rest.. 6th
Exotics Use: #4 Audies Champ 20-1: Will try him again after good 3rd at 23-1.. 5th


3rd: MDN CLM, 3+, 11f-IT (P3, DD, Super)

Most Likely: #7 Albany Road 2-1 WON ($5.80)
Best Value: #2 Roulette Winner 10-1 4th
Next Best: #10 Il Senatore 5-2 2nd
Super Add: #8 Speciale Giorno 12-1 5th


4th: NY-MSW, F&M-3+, 6.5f (P6, P3, DD, Super)

Here's another of the mad scrambles of the day with the major contending state bred maiden fillies all within a length or two of each other..

Best Value: #4 By M K 6-1 2nd
Next Best: #7 Song of Broadway 7-2 3rd
Exotics Use: #5 Silver City Dreams 10-1 4th
Super Add: #11 Julie's Ina Frenzy 6-1 WON ($16.60)


5th: 8th NY Stallion-Cab Calloway, 3yo, 8.5f-IT (G/S, P3, DD, Super)

Along with Thursday's Statue of Liberty, a contentious and fun pair of betting races..

Most Likely: #3 Lubash 3-1 WON ($6.40)
Best Value: #4 Adirondack Warrior 10-1 4th
Next Best: #10 Seattle Mission 2-1 2nd
Super Add: #2 Zealous Boy 6-1 3rd


<$75 P4 Play:

2: 7-8-9
3: 2-7
4: 4-5-7
5: 2-3-4-10

3x2x3x4 = $72


6th: MDN CLM, 3+, 5.5f-T (P4, P3, DD, Super)

Day's 2nd turf sprint and even more of a crapshoot than R1. Group has little experience with grass and dash, so find angles you like and run with them..

Best Value: #5 Moon Raven 15-1: OK in lawn bow; Has speed, drops & priced right.. 8th
Next Best: #8 Real Rooster 4-1: Showing slight progress, but one paced and sure underlay.. 2nd
Exotics Use: #4 Mission Mike Clark 3-1: Nov '09 CRC bow was OK; Working well for return.. 5th
Super Add: #6 Ex Pat 6-1: Has races that were good enough; Player if sod hop to his liking.. 3rd


7th: CLM/N1Y, 3+, 6f (P3, DD, Super)

An eclectic collection of former stakes performers, near stars and never weres. Hard to guage preparedness of several here..

Best Value: #5 Greeley's Legacy 12-1: Hard to pass price given solid form.. 8th
Next Best: #8 Sean Avery SCRATCHED
Exotics Use: #1 Trinity Magic 8-1: 2nd off break; Chased sharp splits in return.. 6th
Super Add: #4 Ramsgate 6-1: Everything working for C. Brown; Veteran OK in return for 20k.. WON ($6.00)

SCA ADD: #6 Tall Poppi 6-1 2nd


8th: OC/N3X, 3+, 9f (DD)

Most Likely: #2 Atomic Rain 2-1 2nd
Next Best: #5 Birdrun 7-2 3rd
Best Value: #3 Seniors Pride 6-1 5th


9th: CLM/N2L, F&M-3+, 8.5f-IT (Super)

Most Likely: #1 Circleboundbay 3-1 5th
Best Value: #7 Upper Gulch 5-1 8th
Next Best: #9 E Z Passer 6-1 WON ($6.80)
Super Add: #8 Deputy's Citizen 6-1 3rd


<$75 P4 Play:

6: 4-5-6-7-8-10
7: 1-4-5
8: 2-5
9: 1-7

6x3x2x2 = $72


Good luck!
Steve

Ex Pat was on my radar following his last race Steve. But "sod hop" makes it too much of a crapshoot for me to play with confidence.
