Default Saratoga Two a Day

Will be posting two horses a day. One will be the equivalent of a “best bet” and one will be a “best long shot”. Hoping to change my mojo in this room a bit.

Opening Day
Best Bet- Race 8- #2 Integral
Longshot- Race 3- #1 Shadow Rider

Good luck!

0 for 2

Integral did her thing, but tired late. Was surprised she was such high odds. Shadow Rider made a bit of a move around the turn, but the slow pace did him in. On to day 2...

With the 7th off the turf let’s change the long shot to
Race 4-#7 Orpheus

Not really a “long shot” but I don’t see much today

Qurbaan was terribly overbet and ran a blah 3rd. Orpheus was a good 2nd at 16-1 and paid $11 to place.

Totals based on a $2 win/place wager
$16 wagered
$11 returned

Good luck today Hoss and appreciate you posting these through the meet. Heading to the track today and will surely at least fold these into my own plays (like New York Hero a lot on my own today anyway).

Good luck today - you will get one home soon I can feel it. This is kind of a concept play type thing, curious if you’re having any luck so far at the meet? I haven’t played much but what I have has been dreadful. Here’s to turning it around

Luckily my betting hasn’t been as bad as my 2 picks a day. It’s tough trying to come up with a best bet, because to me a best bet could be a 20-1 shot that is think is way more likely to win than odds indicate.

I haven’t had a lot of winners but I’ve made the ones I have had count.
