Nadeau: Saratoga Play of the Day Fri 8.30.24
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 8/30/24 |
| Featured track | Saratoga |
| Race number | 10 |
| Race overview | A meek 35k N3L for 3up at 1-mile on the main track. |
| Pace | It looks honest, as more than a few want to be close early, which is usually imperative at this tricky trip. |
| Trends | A fat main track on Saturday and Sunday played fair, though it’s definitely something to monitor early in Closing Week. |
| Best Play | #1 CHILENO (6-5): Obviously you’re not getting rich here, but this veteran lays over the field and seems spotted to score for Rice, who reaches for Irad (9-fofr-20 at Sar), which says it’s go-time, from the perfect post for this trip as well. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive win bet and single in the late Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Play of the Day Winners | Sar Meet: 344-91-82-37 ($1.97/$5.79 through 8/25)
Sar POD: 29-10-11-1 ($1.99/$6.98 through 8/25)
