8/31: Saratoga (Spinaway; Saranac)
The highly anticipated closing weekend Saturday produced underwhelming results all around, though Warn and Freedom Bay helped keep the afternoon from being a fiasco at the windows. First Defense's runaway win in the Forego was impressive, while Curlin's workaday performance in the Woodward was humdrum and yawn-inducing. Final Sunday of the meet has some OK spots as I continue to look forward to Monday and a break... Hope you did well Saturday...

4th: MSW, 2yo-F, 5.5f-T (P3, DD)
How is a Super not available here? This is one of the day's best betting races with some logical 'troubled trip last out' runners and 2-3 well priced 'must use' types.. Same reason as I had called into the show about a couple days ago... superfectas are not offered in NY on any races with coupled entries. Yet another reason to do away with them. On a side note, why was there no Sixty Minute Six yesterday? Website listed it as 'cancelled'... I hope they didn't can it already...

Race 6
I've been eagerly waiting for this Carroll horse to run back, but now that I look at her first race again more objectively I'm not quite as impressed. I'll probably throw some money on her so if she wins I don't go insane, but not the type of money I was planning to bet. . .

My pick of the day is CRITICAL in the 6th.
Working well at AQU only to be shipped to SAR today. Dutrow could easily wait for Belmont meet but seems to me this horse is fit and ready for today. If he wins, it will cap off a decent pick 3 score for me.

Been playing most of the day with modest gain.
This #3 in the finale looks like they sort of pointed for this, if pointing to a claiming race is even possible. I would love to see Walder's Turf Route/Sprint - not that this is a perfect fit but 1 3/4 to a mile is a pretty serious cutback.
