Play of the Day – August 14th 2022
| Play of the Day | |
| Race Date | August 14, 2022 |
| Track | Saratoga |
| Race | 4 |
| Overview | A deep and competitive 50k claimer sprinting on the main with several different ways to go, and a potentially vulnerable favorite in #2 Cost Basis (7-5), who has been off since April and now drops. |
| Pace | It doesn’t look overly heated, so tactical speed (at the very least) should be part of the package. |
| Trends | The main track has continued to play fair throughout the majority meet, and continued to do so last week, though being close is always preferred. |
| Best Bet | EBBEN |
| Number | 6 |
| Morning Line | (6-1) |
| Best Bet Overview | #6 EBBEN (6-1): CD invader goes off the claim for Amoss (18%), and while he was a middling 5th last time, that was against better, and he does have races that fit nicely with these. |
| Picks & Plays | Aggressive WP bet and a must-use/potential single in the early Pk5/Pk4 as well. |
| Stats | Sar POD: 18-2-2-1 ($1.73/$4.26 ROI through 8/7) Sar Meet: 194-48-36-24 ($1.84/$5.41 ROI through 8/7) |
