Saratoga July 26th review + July 27th preview
Saratoga rewind (July 26th)
It was a great day of racing on Saturday. Johnny V pulled off the hat trick, and Edgar Prado booted home a pair of upset winners on the 11-race card…
Race 2: $1.7 million Pletcher firster Munnings bested green Zito FTS Just A Coincidence in this juvenile MSW event. 6f in 1:09.84.
Race 3: Shug blueblood Baronial (Kingmambo-Personal Ensign) finally graduated on the weeds. He is slowly improving and beat a decent field, including promising Mott firster Intercoastal.
Race 7: Forever Together came from last to upset the Diana (G1) for Jonathan Sheppard. Mott’s Dynaforce ended up a clear 2nd.
Race 8: Even with the scratch of Bustin Stones, there was enough pace to set up Abraaj, and he won going away from presser First Defence. 6f in 1:10.23.
Race 8: Ginger Punch won the weak Go For Wand (G1) as expected. Copper State gave a game chase but settled for runner-up honors. 9f in 1:53.43.
Race 9: Commentator pulled off a sharp wire job to win the Whitney (G1) for the 2nd time in his career. Congrats to Nick Zito and company. Student Council rallied to finish well clear of Grasshopper and Notional. 9f in 1:50.23.
