Saratoga should be embarrassed by this track

Makealittlelove (J. Ortiz) was tight to the rail on the turn and spun into the 3-path in the lane and drifted into the 4- or 5-path down the lane. The rail is likely deeper today explaining this one's position. Friend of Liberty (I. Ortiz) was indeed three deep on the turn, but Irad let his mount tread water from the 5/16ths to the quarter pole. If you are going to go three deep, keep your momentum going forward; otherwise just wheel out at the quarter pole. Based on the head-on, it does look like the 4-path might be sought out today ... but that was only one race.
