SARATOGA

Race 7) Lure Stakes

Lucullan (2): Comes out of a very live race after returning to form on the drop in class, this race fits him perfect.

Sacred Life (5): A first time Chad Brown in the states you know how this usually goes.

Gidu (9): Put in a disappointing effort in the Forbidden Apple but I will give him another chance getting back on a firm turf.

Race 8) Grade I Test

Royal Charlotte (5): Now 4 for 4 after a dominating effort in the Victory Ride but this will be her deepest test yet. She is perfectly posted to sit off the speed and run by.

Covfefe (3): Ran very well in defeat to a nice Asmussen horse Mia Mischief. Brad Cox is only bringing live runners here and this will be the one to catch.

Bellafina (2): Returns to sprinting after failing as the favorite in the Kentucky Oaks she is the one to beat.

Race 9) Grade I Whitney

McKinzie (5): Baffert has had exceptional numbers shipping into Saratoga/Belmont over the past few years and this one is simply better than the rest if he runs his race. I recommend playing some tickets with him singled adding in other legs then using some savers in this race.

Preservationist (6): Always has been a talented runner and it looks like they finally have him right, he’s the new shooter to the handicap division that is the one to fear now and going forward.

Yoshida (7): Can forgive his last effort on the comeback from Dubai and give him another chance here on back class.

Vino Rosso (8): He finally put together the effort we were waiting on in the last this track suits him well as a big time grinder.

Race 10) De LaRose

Got Stormy (8): Ran huge in the G2 Distaff Turf Mile on the Derby undercard with a race close to that she will win this for fun.

Stella di Camelot (9): Was bet heavily in the Intercontinental and had a bad trip but ran on late should get some pace to run after here.

Pacific Wind (11): Has enough turf pedigree for me to give her a shot in here with numbers that beat this field if she takes to the turf.

50 cent pick 5

2,5,9/2,3,5/5,6,7,8/8,9,11/ 1,4,6,7,11,12 = $324
