Can't get anything going @ Saratoga, so sticking with what seems to work my way--UK/Irish racing:
1st 8:50
Buick joins with Boughey on 2yo #4 KINTA, challenging the proven #5 LEZOO/Dettori(who will have his 4th run in 6 weeks). Also notable are #3 GLENROYAL(impressive debut) and #9 ROYAL CHARTER(Marquand/Haggas).
xboxing3-4-5-9
tri key 4/3-5/all
race 2 9:25
Possibly a good day for trainer Varian, who has my top choices #6 KIND GESTURE and #9 ZANBAQ.
6 win
exacta pw 6-9/1-2-5-6-7-9
race 3 10:00
Large field--wide open.
xboxing 1-2-4-14-16
race 4 10:35
King George
Coming back with #2 MISHRIFF despite distance ?s. Made a huge finish when returning in the G1 Coral(race of the season so far?). #5 WESTOVER, a 3yo, will be pounded off his last brilliant effort when getting a free run in the Irish Derby. Not sure what to do with the Arc winner #4 TORQUATER TASSO(use him if the ground suits!). All others are capable of running 2nd.
tri wheel 2/all
tri pw 5/1-2/all
race 5 11:10
May skip this one--can't be much to shoot for here---maybe a win play on Frankie's #2 FINN'S CHARM, who has been in with class and maybe a rider upgrade. Could Godolphin/Buick/Appleby be vulnerable?
race 6
Here is where I may take a serious shot to get even or better on Her Majesty's #5 SAGA. Much maligned ride by Frankie @ Royal Ascot--returns in easier today with apprentice Sayette(??). Obviously the Dettori/Gosden rift is ongoing...
5 win
tri key 5/1-2-4-10
xbox 1-2-4-5-10
race 7 12:20
Maybe class relief leads to a rebound for #2 HURRICANE IVOR? Price is attractive.
2 win
xbox 1-2-6
on to toga!
