What a crazy day at Saratoga!  The dragon was asleep and the only thing on fire was me.  I listed six winners, but only two on top.  But that seems to be the norm for me lately.  My top choices don’t win often enough, but if you have faith, you may be able to hit some doubles, exactas, triples and pick 3’s at very decent prices.  From race 4 to 7, I had 3 doubles ($29.80, $239 and $515), 2 pick 3’s ($808 and $1612) an exacta box and a triple box in race 6 ($272.50 and $1590).  I hope you collected and just didn’t key my top picks because I had a $46.20 winner as my second choice in race 6 that keyed all these great payoffs.

So keep the faith and come back to see my selections for twilight friday.  And go to dinner at George’s in Lake George and sit at Denise’s station — she is terrific!

Despite the deluge last night, we are good for both the main track and turf today at The Spa.  Race 4 has been switched to the main track!  In race 8, The Quick Call, 5 1/2 furlongs on the turf, Perfect Officer (#2) should sit a perfect stalking trip behind the leaders and get up in time if he gets the trip.  I’m keying in exactas with Redefined (#1A) and Our Friend Harvey (#4), I’m boxing those three numbers and playing my top two choices in doubles and pick 3’s.

In race 6, Corey’s Coming (#6) is lightly raced and drops back in distance — Bill Mott has several live horses today and this is one of them!

Be careful to watch the track condition today — a drying out main track may favor the closers.  I will list the entire card except race 1 — I can barely handicap the flats so I don’t do jumpers.  Good luck!
