Default 8/6: Saratoga (Day 12; G1 Smithwick); Del Mar ($64k C/O)

Despite just one winner in the sequence paying over $10, the SAR double carryover paid a handsome $74k Wednesday. As noted going in, the sheer breadth of the multiples involved in the sequence and superfluous coverage it generates, guaranteed that the payoff would be sizable. After a solid start to the series, the top tabs in the 8th-10th all settled for 2nd's including Stonetastic who ran stoutly in her 4yo debut but could turn back Unbridled Forever. Hope everyone did OK Wednesday. Action Thursday includes the first G1 of the Steeplechase season and another carryover at DMR.


SARATOGA


POST-SCRATCHES


1st: 19th Paddy Smithwick (NSA G1), 4+, 16.5f-National Fences (P3, DD)

Thanks guys.. Nice to close a few plays out after taking repeated anchor leg beats. Need a couple more yet to balance the scales. Hope everyone got a little healthy today.

FYI follow up.. Parker's Project was injured.. Hinterland got caught up in a (ridiculous) veterinary paperwork tangle that necessitated him coming out.
