9/3: Saratoga (Day 37; Woodward/Forego; $64k C/O)
Excellent start to the closing weekend festivities at the Spa, with $14 River Fancy and $19 Elusive Pearl proving out especially nicely. Hope everyone did well! $64k P6 carryover adds to intrigue of final Saturday, a slate already peppered with 3 G1 stakes and several terrific Maiden events. Should be a furious finish to what has been a fabulous season at Saratoga...
SARATOGA POST-SCRATCHES 1st: Paris Opera, F&M-3+, 1m-IT (P3, DD, Super) Nice way to start the final Saturday card, as little overnight stake includes U.S. debut of Deluxe, Juddmonte's 4yo daughter of legendary broodmare Hasili (Dansili, Cacique, Champs Elysees, Banks Hill, Intercontinental, Heat Haze, et al).. Best Value: #2 Hit It Rich 8-1 8th Next Best: #8 Sugar Again 4-1 WON ($12.20) Exotics Use: #7 Deluxe 2-1 2nd Super Add: #3 Ultimate Class 8-1 7th 2nd: MSW, 2yo, 8.5f-T (P4, P3, DD, Super) One of the days most interesting races with some notable pedigree highlights featured.. Best Value: #8 Scandalicious 12-1: Sneaky on lawn where dam excelled.. 12th Next Best: #3 Super Saturday 6-1: Half to fast Despite the Odds, turf star Chopinina.. 4th Exotics Use: #7 Punctual Jeff 4-1 2nd Super Add: #4 O'Prado Again 6-1 7th 3rd: NY-ALW/N1X, F&M-3+, 8.5f-IT (P3, DD, Super) As always with these state-bred lawn route ALW's, supremely balanced and maddeningly fun wagering opp. Pick your prices and wheel/box away! Best Value: #4 Skip's Prospect 10-1 7th Next Best: #3 Oatka Idas Rose 8-1 9th Exotics Use: #7 Lady's Lunar Luck 9-2 2nd Super Add: #12 Lemon Tiger 3-1 5th 4th: MSW, 3+, 8.5f-T (P3, DD, Super) And here I thought the 2nd race had pedigrees. Among others, Angel Penna unveils Farish homebred Stolen Glance here, a son of 2003 Epsom Oaks winner Casual Look (Red Ransom). Majestic Man from Oxley/Ward is out of La Cucina who has produced sire Sir Cherokee and excellent Miss Isella. Za Approval from Mrs. Weber is half to her wonderful Revved Up and BC Mile winner Miesque's Approval. Value tab King Haigler should leap forward on lawn being a half to rock solid turfers Jimmy Simms and Well Monied. There are more players from the breeding perspective, but I don't have time to get to them all! Best Value: #3 King Haigler 15-1 11th Next Best: #2 Za Approval 5-1 WON ($9.60) Exotics Use: #8 Bluegrass Summer 15-1 8th Super Add: #12 McCarroll 20-1 7th 5th: NY-MSW, F&M-3+, 1m-IT (P3, DD, Super) Best Value: #5 Aquifolia 5-1 5th Next Best: #2 Earnings Release 3-1 2nd Exotics Use: #7 Dancing Tiz 7-2 WON ($11.40) Super Add: #6 Feels Good 12-1 9th <$75 P4 Play: This is a nearly impossible sequence. I'll try to sneak a winner in on the opening leg before widening the net.. 2: 3-4-7-8 3: 3-4-7 4: 2-3 5: 1-2-4-5-6-7 4x3x2x6 = 144 x .50 = $72 6th: MDN CLM, 3+, 8.5f-T (P3, DD, Super) Big SCR of Manresa Road & draw in of Dahess..

Rule by Night may is a bit of an ouchy type, but is potentially fastest if right, with November '10 Groovy win this trip the model for success today. He's drawn ideally and will be one of the longest numbers on the board..

She and Flat Out look to simply be better than the rest right now.. Most Likely: #7 Flat Out 5-2 2nd Next Best: #6 Havre de Grace 8-5 WON ($6.50) Best Value: #3 Giant Oak 8-1 5th Super Add: #2 Mission Impazible 10-1 4th 11th: CLM, 3+, 7f (DD, Super) Best Value: #5 Keechi Bullet 6-1 4th Next Best: #7 One Cool Dude 5-1 5th Exotics Use: #1 Ninety Five South 3-1 7th Super Add: #11 Fiery Rebel 12-1 6th 12th: NY-MSW, 2yo, 6.5f (Super) Most Likely: #10 Saratoga Snacks 7-2 WON ($4.30) Next Best: #8 Parachute Coney 3-1 3rd Exotics Use: #1 Thewizardofnassau 8-1 2nd Super Add: #2 Wild Exploit 20-1 6th <$150 P6 Play: 7: 3-9 8: 2-3-5 9: 4-8-9 10: 6-7 11: 5-7 12: 10 2x3x3x2x2x1 = 72 x $2 = $144 <$50 P4 Play: 9: 1-4-5-7-8-9 10: 2-6-7 11: 1-5-7-11 12: 8-10 6x3x4x2 = 144 x .50 = $72 Good luck!

Maybe I should have recruited him! He couldn't have been any worse than I was today.

Tough day. Was easy to get down early and then there was no place to make money later. It was a fun afternoon, and particularly happy for Zito and Jackson Bend and Sciacca, Coach Parcells and Saratoga Snacks, but today was generally injurious to the bankroll.
