Nadeau: SAR Play of the Day Wed 8.7.24
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 8/7/24 |
| Featured track | Saratoga |
| Race number | 6 |
| Race overview | A deep and competitive 25k N2L for 3upfm going 1-mile on the main track. |
| Pace | It looks honest enough, as there are more than a few who want to be involved up front, which suggest this could tilt towards a stalker. |
| Trends | The main track was all over the place last week, as it rained on and off, but it’s worth noting that if it gets wet again, it was an inside/speed track Whitney Day. |
| Best Play | #7 BUMP IN THE NIGHT (5-1): Rice claim hasn’t been out since late April at OP, so this isn’t ideal in that she was claimed and hasn’t been seen since, but she also comes back for twice the claim price, and with Irad, who is 7-for-13 riding for the barn at the meet the past two years, which suggests this miss is primed today. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet and a leverage single in the late Pk5, and to kick off the late Pk4 as well. |
| Play of the Day Winners | Sar Meet: 196-53-43-19 ($2.02/$5.73)
Sar POD: 16-5-6-0 ($1.58/$6.04)
