Track | Saratoga |
Race | 9 |
Overview | A very strong AOC, with a potentially vulnerable favorite in #2 Forza Di Oro (9-5), who faces older off a November layoff. |
Pace | It figures to be a bit on the tepid side, so an inside draw and the ability to lay close early will be key. |
Trends | Tactical speed, as per usual, has been extremely important, with very few winners coming from off the pace early in the meet. |
Best Bet | HIGHEST HONORS |
Number | 3 |
Morning Line | (5-2) |
Best Bet Overview | #3 HIGHEST HONORS 5-2): Talented but troubled sort really moved forward in his authoritative score second-off the long layoff last time, has a win over the track/distance, and looks poised to take another step forward on his way back into stakes foes. |
