A Saratoga Superfecta Sunday

 We look in on the "Spa" for a great race at a mile on the Turf for some Superfecta Sunday action.

Saratoga Race 8 {Starter Optional Claiming~1 mile~TURF~3 year-old}

A full field of twelve will hit the green in this penultimate race on the card.

Past Performances used:  Equibase.

There is plenty of speed in this race to keep the pace hot. Speed figures are very close among this group. All have raced over Turf and at the distance. Six in the field will try the Saratoga Course for the first time. It should be one of many great races on the card.

#10 High Beta (J. Ortiz / C. Brown) is the morning line favorite with a long layoff. Connections are very good at bring a horse back from an extended layoff. This guy loves the Turf and the distance. Four consistent workouts add to his cause. He should track the pace closely and strut into the stretch. A son of Volatile, he is 100% in the money from four starts.

$2 WIN  /  $3 PLACE  /  $5 SHOW.

#3 Gene and Jade (Santana / Maker) will challenge with the third highest last out speed number and two superb workouts. This lad has hit the board in both of his races over the Saratoga course. He should be forwardly placed. A son of Kitten's Joy, he is 60% in the money from ten starts.

#8 Hard Circle (Gaffalione / Kantarmaci) comes to the race with the highest last out speed number at a longer route. He is another that should be forwardly placed. It will be his first start over the Saratoga course. A son of Hard Spun, he is 50% in the money from fourteen starts.

#6 Highlands Way (Prat / Pletcher) will be making his second career start. He should track the pace and close nicely into a quick one. This guy is cutting back in distance with one solid workout. It will be his first start over the Saratoga course. A son of Not This Time, he holds a 50%-win rate from those two starts.
