Today Thursday, August 22

So, today's card at Saratoga is one of those cards you have to use your judgement, you got a four horse field with Chad Brown with the upper hand with three of the four.


The 5th race is the Vet Scratch race of the day.


Its down to 3 horsesm but I like the bookends of the card, especially with a price play in the 1st and last, both.


Del Mar is, of course, fast and firm and I bet there will be far less scratches than the Spa card.


There is value in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th, a great P5 type of horizontal wager scenario.


I am also adding a column by our man Ron Flatter:
