Aug 27th, 2011 | By mircon1 | Category: Saratoga, Today’s Picks

Fast and good on Travers Day with an incredible 13 race card on tap!  Had a proficient day yesterday when I listed 9 out of 10 winners and several exactas, but only two winners on top so I will try and do better today.  Stay safe everyone on the east coast and good luck if you are betting Saratoga today!

In race 11, The Grade 1 Kings Bishop, Caleb’s Posse (#2) found his forte as a late running sprinter in The Amsterdam at a big price and can repeat with a sizzling pace in front of him today — key in all doubles and pick 3’s and play an exacta box with #1.

In race 13, Windafull (#1) gets a cozy post and less ground in a race without a lot of speed — can wire these at a decent price.  Key in all late multi-race wagers and play an exacta box with #’s 8 and 10.  Here’s the entire card and good luck!

Race 2: 8, 7 and 1
