8/5: Saratoga (Hall of Fame/Troy; 5th-10th)
SARATOGA
POST-SCRATCHES 5th: ALW/N1X, F&M-3+, 12f-Inner (P6, $3 Triple Play/5-8-9, P3, DD) Best Value: #3 Ballymore Star 12-1 3rd Next Best: #1 Shad Nation 5-2 4th Exotics Use: #5 Rheaume 4-1 2nd Super Add: #8 My Sweet Story 8-1 6th $3 Triple Play Grid: 5: 1-3-5 (A), - (B), - (C) 8: 6-7 (A), 1-3-5-9 (B), - (C) 9: 5 (A), - (B), 3 (C) Simple (A+B): 3x6x1 = 18 x $3 = $54 All A's: 3x2x1 = 6 x $3 = $18 Backups: 1-3-5 w/ 6-7 w/ 3 = 3x2x1 = 6 x $3 = $18 6th: MSW, 2yo-F, 5.5f-T (P5, G/S, P3, DD) Best Value: #4 AZTEC NIGHTS 6-1 WON ($9.40) Next Best: #2 Love Tank 7-2 7th Exotics Use: #1 Run for Cover 6-1 6th Super Add: #10 She'll Never Know 8-1 8th 7th: CLM, 3+, 1m (P4, P3, DD) Best Value: #5 Ragtime Blues 9-2 2nd Next Best: #4 Direct Order 3-1 WON ($7.10) Exotics Use: #2 Dark Storm 5-1 4th Super Add: #7 Handy 8-1 8th 8th: Hall of Fame (G2), 3yo, 1m-Inner (P3, DD) Always interesting group for this and there is not one auto-toss of the 9 including Chucky Lawrence's 20-1 Wow What a Summer whose Penn Mile win stands up against these. And what do you do with Wit (4-1) whose grass efforts in the morning hint at turf ability? Double Clutch got within 2 lengths of Annapolis in the Manila and that one is your 5-2 choice in tomorrow's Saratoga Derby. Rusty Arnold regularly offers overlay potential in these parts. Super race and none of the 3,024 superfecta combinations are impossible.. Best Value: #7 Double Clutch 5-1 5th Next Best: #6 Ready to Perform 9-2 WON ($9.80) Exotics Use: #3 Wit 4-1 2nd Super Add: #5 Stolen Base 8-1 7th 9th: Troy (G3), 4+, 5.5f-T (DD) Golden pal the horse to beat obviously, but Arzak is not far off the favorite and has benefit of pace set up. Spycraft is an overlay at 15-1 and Thin White Duke can nab 3rd or 4th late.. Most Likely: #5 Golden Pal 1-2 WON ($2.60) Next Best: #3 Arzak 9-2 4th Best Value: #1 Spycraft 15-1 6th Exotics Use: #7 Thin White Duke 30-1 3rd 10th: NY-MCLM/$25k, F&M-3+, 7f Most Likely: #6 Wicked Lady 5-2 WON ($8.20) Next Best: #4 Big Bean Christine 7-2 7th Best Value: #1 Miss Malala 30-1 8th Exotics Use: #3 Regal Rebel 6-1 9th P5 Grid: 6: 2-4 (A), - (B), - (C) 7: 2-4-5 (A), - (B), - (C) 8: 6-7 (A), 3-5 (B), - (C) 9: 5 (A), 3 (B), - (C) 10: 6 (A), 4 (B), 1-3-7 (C) Simple (A+B): 2x3x4x2x2 = 96 x .50 = $48 All A's: 2x3x2x1x1 = 12 x .50 = $6 Backup: $18 (1-3-7 in 10th) $0.50 Pick 5 (4/4/6/5/6) Paid $272.50 (A-A-A-A-A) P4 Grid: 7: 2-4-5 (A), - (B), - (C) 8: 6-7 (A), 3-5 (B), - (C) 9: 3-5 (A), - (B), - (C) 10: 6 (A), 1-4 (B), 3-7 (C) Simple (A+B): 3x4x2x3 = 72 x .50 = $36 All A's: 3x2x2x1 = 12 x .50 = $6 Backup: $12 (3-7 in 10th) $0.50 Pick 4 (4/6/5/6) Paid $64.37 (A-A-A-A) Good luck!

Nice work today Steve. I've been on the grounds and hoping to run into you to show you my retro/original DT baseball hat...LOL
I took a big swing on Ballymore Star and came really close - then missed out on the ALL CAPS special. Thought I was a goner until Ready to Perform bailed me out! Been pretty chalky the last 2 days - I'm looking for a couple bombs tomorrow! Good luck! |
