Saratoga Before the Storm

Today we look at a fantastic Turf contest at pleasurable Saratoga.

Saratoga Race 9 {Bernard Baruch~G2~1 1/8 mile~Turf~3 year old Up~Stakes}
A solid field of eleven will make the start.  A nice balance of running styles should make this one exciting.

#7 Blues Street (Desormeaux / Pletcher) looks well positioned to take advantage of an active pace with the fourth highest last out speed number, the highest speed number at the distance and one hardy workout.  Should close well.
$1 WIN / SHOW.

#11 Get Stormy (Dominguez / Bush) will lead the way with his speed.  He holds the second highest speed number at the distance, four wins out of five starts at Saratoga, and one robust workout. 
$1 PLACE / SHOW.

#4 Beaux Choix (Lezcano / Tagg) looks ready to produce a great race with the third highest last out speed number, a three race progression, and three well-built, peaking workouts.  He will surprise by tracking the pace and making a game run in the stretch.
#2 SHOW.

Other Wagering Interests

#8 Hymn Book (J. Velazquez / McGaughey) looks live and ready to make a strong effort with the highest last out speed number and three superb, peaking workouts.  Another that could track the pace favorably.

#2 Turallure (Leparoux / Loprestri) looks set to make a great run with a couple of very good last out speed numbers and two significant, peaking workouts.  He could surprise.
