Nadeau: SAR Play of the Day Wed 7.24.24
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 7/24/24 |
| Featured track | Saratoga |
| Race number | 4 |
| Race overview | An extremely weak 30k MCL for NYB 3up going 1-mile on the main track. |
| Pace | There’s little to none here, as this is filled with deep closers, which should only flatter the chances of #1 BIG EGO (6-5), who should be up close throughout. |
| Trends | The main track has been fair, though speed (as always) is preferred, and it did seem a bit more inside, especially over the weekend. |
| Best Play | #1 BIG EGO (6-5): Rice claim (25%) gets a huge trainer switch, drew well, lays over this field on paper, and has the speed to be on or just off what looks like a tepid pace. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet and single in the early Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Play of the Day Winners | Sar POD: 7-1-3-0 ($1.07/$5.41)
