Play of the Day
Race Date August 12, 2021
Track Saratoga
Race 8
Overview A compact AOC for older where everyone can win, but where none of the favorites really inspire either.
Pace It should be honest, as both #3 and #4 want to go, and #6 CHOCOLATE BAR (4-1) won’t be too far back either, but it doesn’t look overly fast either.
Trends The main track played decidedly to early speed over the weekend, so being close seems imperative.
Best Bet CHOCOLATE BAR
Number 6
Morning Line (4-1)
Best Bet Overview #6 CHOCOLATE BAR (4-1): Intriguing sort tried the main after 13 turf attempts to start is career and was a strong and fast 3rd, albeit in the slop, but if he can handle dry land, he’ll have a huge shot against a group that has an underachieving label to it.
Picks & Plays Aggressive WP bet and a must-use in the late Pk5/Pk4 as well.
