If the track comes up muddy,everything changes.
I see two contenders in this one.
Emancipation for Shug: He looks like a two turn,9-10 furlong type.
He's leggy,travels nicely.........and eats up ground once he gets moving.
His first two races(one turn-7/8 furlongs) were not in his wheelhouse.......the fourth on Wednesday is.
Really bright future for Emancipation.
Blame Us All: Don't be fooled by the state he was bred in,he's a 700k Blame purchase.
His Penn National state bred was a giggle,it was that easy.
He came back @ the X and ran behind T R Crew,but I don't think he liked that track(he didn't move over it well).........plus T R Crew really likes that surface.
I think at Saratoga the tables turn on the Crew.
I don't like a couple things about Fayeq: he benefited plenty from Winning Element knocking around four other horses out of the gate in his most recent.
I also don't like the way Fayeq stays so hard on his right in the stretch,if he doesn't correct to the switch it's going to cost him.
The Rudy horse looks like what you see on paper,a minor sort.
Battle Midway.......doing a rain dance.
