Nadeau: Play of the Day Saratoga Sun 7.27.25
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | |
| Date | 7/27/25 |
| Featured track | Saratoga |
| Race number | 9 |
| Race overview | A solid AOC for 3up at 1-mile on the main track. |
| Pace | There’s a ton here on paper, as runners 1-4 all want to be on or just off the early lead, so having a tactical gear seems imperative. |
| Trends | A fast main track has played towards speed, so you need to be able to lay somewhat close early, at the very least. |
| Best Play | #6 WARRIOR RICHARD (2-1): Stalker enters in top form for Sharp, who is having a banner meet (and year), cuts back after getting a bit late at 1 1/8 miles, and has a perfect running style to sit off the abundance of speed and get first run on the rest. |
| Bet Types | Aggressive WP bet and single in the late Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Play of the Day Winners | Sar Meet: 42-11-12-8 ($1.76/$5.95 ROI through 7/13)
Sar POD: 3-0-1-0
