Saratoga Saturday Aug. 8th

[Kitan]

Race 1:
#7 Looking Cool: Won going two-turns for 40k in the fall. Bounced in and out of tougher races and nothing wrong with his finish going seven panels opening weekend.
#1 Cease
#6 Mail
#2 Second City

Race 2:
#3 Monster Bea: Stuck behind a wall and exploded into the turn on the gallop-out. Heavy turf influence and connections have already got one on the board.
#9 Deeply Undervalued
#6 Mighty Mo
#5 Matt King Coal

Race 3:
#7 Wingman: $300k weanling purchase, nearly $225k more than the sire average from the sale. Two bullets for a trainer capable of winning first out.
#6 Smart Moon
#9 Set the Trappe
#10 Tarpon Bay Road

Race 4:
#6 Reload
#4 Charming Kitten
#2 Under Control

Race 5:
#10 Bubba's d'Oro: Levine doesn't crank them first out, especially on the turf. Pinched back at the start, started to sweep up wide before clipping heels, stumbling, and easing up. Carmouche returns and I'm taking a stab.
#5 Infinite Wisdom
#4 Lookaroundcorners
#7 Zennor
#12 and #11 have chances in a wide open race...

Race 6:
#9 Havana: Obviously isn't the same horse, but the fact that Coolmore haven't retired him to stud intrigues. Slipped at the break and rushed up in his most recent failure. His two major rivals may just be using this as a prep which gives him one last chance...
#4 Ocean Knight
#3 Sassicaia
#5 Takajo

Race 7:
#5 Recepta
#9 Daring Kathy
#1 Miss Frost
#4 A Little Bit Sassy

Race 8:
#2 Cavorting
#3 By the Moon
#1 Irish Jasper
#9 Bar of Gold

Race 9:
#2 Tonalist
#7 Lea
#4 Liam's Map
#9 Wicked Strong

Race 10:
#7 Hellenistic
#10 Queen's Parade
#4 Chat
#12 Danza Cavallo

Race 11:
#3 Full Tap: Just looks the best...

Thanks lemon, ADJMK, hooves.

Aside from the early double the multis didn't hit but intrarace wagers were very generous, especially the Super in the Test. Hoping this gets the proverbial train rolling for the rest of the meet...
