Nadeau: Saratoga 7.17.26 Play of the Day
| “PLAY of the DAY” by Brian Nadeau | ||
| Date | 7/17/26 | |
| Featured track | Saratoga | |
| Race number | 10 | |
| Race overview | A relatively meek 20k N2L for fm3up at 6 ½ furlongs. | |
| Pace | It looks honest enough, as there are more than a few who want t o be close early, at what can be a very tricky distance for speedsters. | |
| Trends | The main track was very fair last weekend, and even seemed to tilt towards those with an ability to come from off-the-pace. | |
| Best Play | #2 DONNA ROMANO (2-1): Cox/Dubb filly goes off the 11/9 layoff for an owner that is always willing to drop a horse to pick up a Saratoga win, and with Lasix on and Irad up, and a sustained worktab since May, it sure looks like she’s spotted to score. | |
| Bet Types | Aggressive win bet, and single to end the late Pk5/Pk4 as well. | |
