Sabbath Sunday: The Conductor’s Prayers at Saratoga

Yesterday was fun. Except when the Conductor 3 putted from two feet on the 36^th hole to lose the match. To be fair, 36 holes and an exuberant amount of stews means it was completely unsanctioned and will be stricken from the record. Saratoga time, Let’s Ride.

Race 3: 1 1/16 Mile. (Turf) F.Mdn 90k

#7 Morning Gold (3/1) – She ran a good 2^nd in her debut. With a rider upgrade and experience she’ll be tough in this spot.

#1 Takecharge Mirella (5/1) – This filly is taking a big class drop and has recent figures that would handle this group.

Race 5: 5½ Furlongs. (Turf) F.S.OC 40000n2x

*Gullet Shot of the Day#4 Stonefactor (12/1) – She’s coming in off a long layoff, but she has the best figures in the field sprinting on the turf. She won last summer at Saratoga and the Conductor sees her doing it again today at a nice number.

Race 6: 6 Furlongs. F.Mdn 90k

#10 Mundaye Call (7/2) – This filly was 950k at auction, posting bullet works, and Jose Ortiz hops aboard for a tiny barn. All signs point to her running off the screen.

Race 7: 1 1/8 Mile. (Inner Turf) S.Alw 80000n1x

#4 Gosilently (10/1) – 2^nd off the layoff, he’s the lone speed in the race and looks to get favorable trip on the front end. He doesn’t like to win often, the Conductor will mostly key him underneath in the exacta and trifecta.

Race 8: 7 Furlongs. F.OC 62500n2x

*Never a Doubt Sunday Scary Preventer Lock of the Day #2 Cookie Dough (9/5) – She set a hot pace vs G3 company at Saratoga last time and still held on for 2^nd. The Conductor like her at this distance.

Race 9: 5½ Furlongs. (Turf) F.Galway Stakes 100K

#3 Sister Peacock (8/1) – She set a hot pace going longer at Woodbine last start and cuts back to a sprint today. She’s yet to miss the board in 7 career starts on multiple distances.

Race 10: 1 1/16 Mile. (Inner Turf) MC 40000

#2 Hurricane Jake (6/1) – 2^nd off the layoff, he’s dropping to the maiden ranks and stretching out to a turf route for the 1^st time. Trainer Phillip Bauer is 27% with a +$1.52 ROI 2^nd time Lasix this year.
