Off to Saratoga

A beautiful day for a Turf route at the "Spa".  We take a look at a nice graded stakes at beautiful Saratoga.

Saratoga Race 9 {Bernard Baruch~G2~1 1/8 mile~inner Turf~3 year old Up~Stakes}
An extremely talented field of eight go to the gate in this annual race.  Whatsthescript [IRE] (Maragh / Contessa) has a very slight edge with the second highest last out speed number, a three race progression, and two solid workouts.  This guy is also 100% in the money at this distance over four races.  National Kid [ARG] (Leparoux / R. Dutrow) should surprise with the third highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and four well-built, peaking workouts.  Get Stormy (Castellano / Bush) will be the speed of the group with the highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and one fantastic bullet workout.  Radical Sabbatical (Dominguez / Tagg) appears ready to challenge with a couple of decent last out speed numbers and three fiery workouts.  Let's play Saratoga.
