Nadeau: SAR Play of the Day Thurs 7.18.24
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 7/18/24 |
| Featured track | Saratoga |
| Race number | 5 |
| Race overview | A competitive 50k claimer for 3yos at 7Fs on the main track. |
| Pace | There’s plenty here who want to be involved early ad at this demanding trip, that could prove troublesome in the lane. |
| Trends | The main track seemed to play fair Opening Week, though with heavy rains hitting earlier this week, make sure to give Wednesday’s results a look. |
| Best Play | #7 IRIDESCENT (5-2): It’s rare to see Eclipse Award winning trainer Cox make a claim these days, but this is how he emerged on the scene several years ago, and he’s 9-for-19 doing it of late, plus this one was snagged by Dubb and Goldfarb, two prolific claiming owners, and with the freshening since 5/12, and a gaudy worktab showing as well, you better look out here. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet and single to end the early Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Play of the Day Winners | Sar Meet: 43-11-10-4 ($1.61/$5.43)
Sar POD: 3-1-1-0 ($2.50/$8.63)
