Nadeau: SAR Play of the Day Sun 8.4.24
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 8/4/24 |
| Featured track | Saratoga |
| Race number | 9 |
| Race overview | A deep and competitive renewal of the G3 Adirondack for 2yofs going 6 ½ Fs on the main track. |
| Pace | Ot looks hot and contested, as more than a few want to be in front, so at this elongated distance for this group at this time of year, things could melt down in the lane. |
| Trends | Rains hit overnight Friday and left the main track muddy early Saturday morning, so it’s pointless to speculate how it might play, but make sure to look at the charts to try and get an indication. |
| Best Play | #2 ITALIAN SOIREE (9-2): Terranova filly showed some poise and professionalism to win on debut after an eventful beginning, after she veered in badly at the start, and note she was 2-1 for a barn that doesn’t win with firsters (anymore), and that rating gear she showed will come in very handy here. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet and a leverage single in the late Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Play of the Day Winners | Sar Meet: 145-38-34-13 ($1.90/$5.69)
Sar POD: 11-3-4-0 ($1.34/$5.76)
