Nadeau: Saratoga Sat 8.31.24
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 8/31/24 |
| Featured track | Saratoga |
| Race number | 8 |
| Race overview | A potentially loaded MSW for 2yos at 7Fs on the main track. |
| Pace | It figures to be hot and contested, as there are a slew of well-bred first-time starters coming from top barns, who have all worked well—and several who have worked fast—in the morning. |
| Trends | A fast main track on Saturday and Sunday played fair, though it’s definitely something to monitor early in Closing Week. |
| Best Play | #3 TAP INTO THIS (3-1): CD invader enters fresh for an Asmussen barn that has laid in the weeds a bit this meet, but that debut 2nd was strong, he has an experience edge, and his tactical speed should play well too. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet and single in the slew of horizontal exotics 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)
