Saratoga: Whitney Stakes Day Key Horses

S

Happy Whitney Stakes Day passengers. Perfect timing right after the Ductor slaughtered yesterdays card. What a great life us passengers get to live. We just get rich while the Ductor does all the work. More coal! More!

Saratoga Race 2: #4 She Caught My Eye (4/1), #6 Afilada (5/2)

Race 4: #2 Khali Magic (9/5), #6 Impazible Donna (6/1)

Saratoga Race 5: #8 Somelikeithotbrown (5/2)

Race 6: #6 Rocket Can (6/1)

Saratoga Race 7: #6 War Like Goddess (1/2), #3 Petricor (6/1)

Race 8: #5 Fluid Situation (8/1), #7 Money Supply (9/2)

Race 9: #1 Matareya (2/5), #4 Wish You Well (12/1)

*Whitney Stakes Race 10: *Gullet Shot of the Day #2 Hot Rod Charlie (9/2) – This is a very salty rendition of the Whitney despite the short field. Life is Good and Olympiad will take the majority of the money and Hot Rod Charlie will likely be an overlay after being defeated last time. The Ductor doesn’t hold that effort against him, he ran very well returning from Dubai and going a shorter distance against a gutsy sprinter. Stretching out to his best distance today, the Ductor is against Life is Good going this far at such a short price and Olympiad hasn’t faced a runner as classy as Hot Rod. The Ductor trusts Prat to work out a good trip and he is the clear bet for him the morning line is relatively accurate.

Whitney Stakes Day is the best card of the meet so far. Prepare and conquer. Let’s Ride

Race 3: Race 3: 6 Furlongs. Alw 103000n1x

#1 Life Changer (6/1) – This colt showed talent winning on debut last summer and pressed a wicked pace off a year layoff last time out. Shortening in distance today, he has the early pace figures to clear this field from the rail and can take a big step forward. He won’t change your life, but he can make your day.

Race 6: Race 6: 1 1/16 Mile. (Turf) LureL120K

#9 South Bend (12/1) – Exiting tougher on dirt, this colt has gotten some tough trips in his last few raes. He can run just fine on turf and Rosario fits his running style nicely. The Ductor thinks he can surprise this group.

Race 7: 1½ Mile. (Inner Turf) F.G2 Glens Falls Stakes

#3 War Like Goddess (8/5) – This filly has a thunderous late kick and she will get pace to run at in this one. The Ductor can’t find any alternatives.

Race 8: 7 Furlongs. F.G1 Longines Test Stakes

#2 Souper Sensational (6/1) – With a clean trip last time she showed what she can do sprinting and she’s working even better entering today. She has as good a chance as any in here and she’ll be a fair number.

Race 9: 1 3/16 Mile. (Turf) G1 Saratoga Derby Invitational Stakes

#7 Secret Protector (6/1) – A European will win this race, that the Conductor knows. Which one? He doesn’t have a strong opinion but he will put this colt on top. Appleby runners fire consistently in their first start in the states and this colt has yet to run a bad race.

Race 10: 1 1/8 Mile. G1 Whitney Stakes

*Gullet Shot of the Day #3 Swiss Skydiver (6/1) – This is quite the race even with a small field and the Ductor is going for the latch. She ran a dud last time, but had a foot issue, so the Ductor will excuse her one more time. Her race in the Preakness last year can win this race and one of her best races was in the Alabama over this track. The Ductor still thinks this mare is a freak and will take a swing that she upsets the boys again today.
