**Best Value: I'm Fine #1 (Race 7)**

Most Likely Winner: (Race 9: Fortin Hill #5, 3/1):

By Mucho Macho Man, this Indiana bred and Bill Mott trainee is all-class. A 6-yr-old, he doesn’t have that many races to his credit, but I like this spot because he comes back to Saratoga after a quality start at Belmont in a similar OC80kn3x. I realize he was favored against the likes of Mr. Phil, who won … but that doesn’t mean he isn’t a superb runner that cannot win here. The odds should be right at 3/1 … anything above that is an overlay. I will be watching the tote closely, and with Jose Ortiz back aboard, he should be able to get the job done for his HOF conditioner.

Wagering Recommendation: $100 Win, #5



Off-the-Pace Play of the Day: (Race 7: I’m Fine #1, 8/1):

The good folks at Highlander Training Center in Texas own this mare by Blame, and even though she has won only once out of 19 tries, that doesn’t mean she cannot score in this spot. Looking over her form, there is actually much-to-like. Trainer Joe Sharp entered her on 3 occasions at Belmont, and the results were solid. She will be getting a major rider upgrade with Luis Saez, and that could prove decisive. When it comes to the turf, he is aggressive, and ready for action! The price will be right too at 8/1 or maybe even higher.

Wagering Recommendation: $100 Bankroll, Graduated Wager WPS #1 ($10-W, $15-P, $75-S)

Rocket Picks ��: Gulfstream Park, Monmouth Park, and Saratoga for July 17, 2022
By: Aaron Halterman

Let’s finish off the week strongly today! For the free pick 4, we will head to Saratoga for the Late Pick 4 on the card. We will also have full card selections for Gulfstream Park and Monmouth Park for the paid Rockets, so be sure to check those out.

Below is our free late Pick 4 for Saratoga:

Saratoga July 17, 2022

Race 7: Allowance

#2 Just Ok Is Not Ok makes her first start as a four year old for a new trainer, which could lead to an improved effort. She is working well leading up to this race. #5 New Ginya was a neck away from winning at this level last time out at Belmont Park. She wheels back in this race today with a big chance to get the job done.

Race 8: Quick Call Stakes (G3)
freestar

#8 Big Invasion has looked flawless in his last several races and looks ready to fire a big effort in this spot. He has defeated several of the horses entered here with ease. #4 Nobals has won four straight races in impressive fashion, including a solid stakes win over the turf at Churchill Downs in his last start.

Race 9: Allowance Optional Claiming

#4 Sound Money gets major class relief for this race after taking on Jackies Warrior last time out at Belmont Park. These horses will be more to his liking. #5 Fortin Hill has hit the board in three straight races coming into this race. He continues to improve as he races more after having trouble staying on the race track in previous years.

Race 10: Maiden Claiming

#5 Our Jessica ran well when running for a tag for a first time last time out, finishing a solid second. She should show improved running at this level again for the second straight race. #4 Inkblot was third at this level last time out, while she has been close at this level in three straight starts.

Spa selections 2022: Saratoga picks July 17

by Joseph Aiello

In Spa Selections, Saratoga on-site correspondent Joseph Aiello provides Saratoga picks for a handful of key races at Saratoga, including all of the exciting stakes action!

Race 7 – Alw 95000n1x

1. #9 Russiarussiarussia (7-2) – Will likely be over-bet after Chad Brown’s four win day yesterday, but it would be tough to pass up on this one with others having winning difficulties

2. #5 New Ginya (5-2) – Some solid efforts in three tries, but might be one that needs the right set up and a mid-pack trip to be a winner here

3. #11 Classic Lynne (6-1) – Adds lasix and comes off a long layoff from October, but has a race at this distance that is good enough to beat most of these

4. #1 I’m Fine (8-1) – Doesn’t seem like a winning threat, but one that is routinely finishing in the top four and should be a good play to round out exotics

Race 8 – Grade III Quick Call Stakes

1. #8 Big Invasion (6-5) – Should get the right set up, and this will come down to Rosario timing his move well and not having this one too far back

2. #4 Nobals (9-2) – Has really hit his stride this year, winning all four tries, but may need to contend with more pace pressure and faces his toughest test in a graded stakes

3. #6 One Timer (6-1) – Has flashed some real speed and is a real threat to press Nobals or at least sit off of him for a good trip here

4. #7 Asymmetric (7-2) – Takes blinkers off which should be a good move in this field, as this one looks to close and could be the beneficiary of a hot pace

Race 9 – OC 80000n3x

1. #1 Supremacy (5-1) – We’ll try to take down the favorite in this very tough field where almost anyone can win, but this one could get away with the early lead and cuts back in distance

2. #4 Sound Money (8-5) – Drops from two graded races where he finished a distant second, but hasn’t had a great performance up on a fast pace so could be challenged here

3. #5 Fortin Hill (3-1) – Has been struggling to win and may not be in as good of form as others, but consistently finishes well and can find his way into the money here

4. #2 Night Time (6-1) – Seems to run well at Saratoga and should improve greatly after posing no contest to Jackie’s Warrior last time, plus his best races might be slightly better than others

# 10 JV ZOOM FLYING GIRL 7/2

# 3 JV PAPPAS POCKETBOOK 6/1

# 9 SHEZ MORE LETHAL 5/2

JV ZOOM FLYING GIRL has a decent shot to take this race. Had one of the best speed figures of this group of horses in her last race. JV PAPPAS POCKETBOOK - Is tough not to consider based on Equibase Speed Figures which have been competitive - 71 avg - of late. Valenzuela should be able to get this filly to break out sharply in this competition. SHEZ MORE LETHAL - Ran a solid last race. Could provide positive gains based on very good recent speed figures with an average of 70.

# 2 DRAGON ON ICE 4/1

# 7 SWEET ZULU 3/1

# 3 BOY WITH CASH 8/1

I think DRAGON ON ICE is a very strong choice. His 78 average has this gelding with among the best speed figures for this event. Will most likely compete strongly in the early speed clash which bodes well with this field. SWEET ZULU - Looks decent versus this group of horses in this race and should be one of the early speedsters. BOY WITH CASH - Earning some good dough in short events. Has very good Equibase Class Figures relative to this field - worth a look.

#5 COURAGEOUSLY (ML=6/1)
#6 CHANTRY FLATS (ML=15/1)
#2 ROGUE ELEMENT (ML=9/2)


COURAGEOUSLY - Hartman is great in turf routes. This animal should have no alibis if he doesn't win. Look at this pattern of improvement. 85/89/92 are the last three Equibase speed figures. CHANTRY FLATS - This one likes to win on different ovals. The switch in venue today may be a wake up call. Using this rider/conditioner combination is a good choice. Clearly didn't like the surface of the last event as much as two starts back on the turf. Watch out today for a return to a sharp race. ROGUE ELEMENT - This jock and handler have a positive return on investment when they work together.

Vulnerable Contenders: #10 RED HORNET (ML=2/1), #9 ARABIAN PRINCE (ML=5/1), #3 FINDING FREEDOM (ML=8/1),

RED HORNET - If he goes off at the oddsmaker's morning line of 2/1, I'll have to pass. ARABIAN PRINCE - This horse doesn't have a winning make-up. Time-and-again finishes close, but no cigar. FINDING FREEDOM - The long vacation will probably mean trouble for this racer. Earned a common speed rating last time around the track in an $80,000 Optional Claiming race on May 2nd. Unlikely to see an improved performance off of that figure.

Jeff Siegel: What You Need to Know - Saratoga | Sunday, July 17, 2022

by Jeff Siegel

SEVENTH RACE: Post time: 4:29 ET
5-New Ginya (5/2)

Missed the break and gave herself too much to do when a fast-finishing third (beaten a neck) in a similar state-bred first-level allowance turf router at Belmont Park last month, but with a clean start today she should be able to gain a favorable early position and have every chance to seal the deal from the quarter pole home. The lightly raced daughter of Tonalist appeared sharp in a recent dirt track breeze to tick her over for what should be another forward move. You should also consider 11-Classic Lynne in your rolling exotics and in the exactas and/or trifectas, if she actually runs (she was entered in a stakes race on Wednesday and may opt for that spot). Although stuck outside in her first start since October, the Joe Sharp-trained filly shows a steady series of workouts to have her fit and will be making her first start with Lasix. She could easily be a better type this time around.

TENTH RACE – Post time: 6:13 ET
10-Skyward Princess (3-1)

Second-time starter makes the always-critical class drop from maiden to maiden claiming and this New York-bred filly may have found her friends while stretching out to a distance of ground after a solid sprint prep in her first outing in 10 months. The Chad Brown barn hits at a remarkable 30% with the second-off-a-layoff angle, so we’re expecting this daughter of Air For Blue to produce a significant forward move, especially against this softer group. For exacta/trifecta players, consider 1-Jannie Mae and 5-Our Jessica somewhere on your ticket. The former stretches out after a sprint tune-up, lands the rail, and could get brave if she shakes loose as the controlling speed. The latter is a one-paced grinder but has numbers that fit and could clunk up for at least a piece of it.

SARATOGA WORKOUT ANALYSIS AND COMMENTARY:


FIFTH RACE:

Yarrow (July 9, Saratoga, 4f, :50.2b TT). Grade: B
Nothing more than a gallop for C. Clement, breezing through the lane and into the clubhouse turn, first three panels in :37 flat before coasting out the final furlong. Best as a late-running turf sprinter and seems to have improvement in her.

SEVENTH RACE:

New Ginya (July 9, Saratoga, 4f, :51b TT). Grade: B-
Under a hold throughout, :37.3 on our watches from the quarter pole to the seven-eighths while looking fine for C. Clement in solo training track breeze. Lightly raced with plenty of room for further improvement.
View Workout Video

Classic Lynne (July 10, Saratoga, 4f, :48.3b). Grade: B-
Easy breeze for J. Sharp while outside La Neblina (same time), :48.2 on our watches, a tad best at the wire but second best on the gallop out. Seems in good enough shape, was also entered in stakes race on Wednesday.

EIGHTH RACE:

Sky and Sand (July 11, Saratoga, 4f, :50.3b TT TC). Grade: B-
Solo turf breeze inside the dogs, final quarter in :24.3 for S. Asmussen. Just a maintenance move, was a beaten choice at Churchill Downs last time out but appeared well enough here.

NINTH RACE:

Fortin Hill (July 7, Saratoga, 4f, :49.3b TT). Grade: B-
Solo training track drill for W. Mott, never really asked though wanting to lean in just a bit, final quarter mile in :24.1. Seems well enough.
View Workout Video

Gun It (July 9, Saratoga, 4f, :50.4b TT). Grade: B-
Not asked but refused to change leads despite efforts by the rider to do so, final quarter mile in :25.1. in solo training track drill. Never has been big on winning but usually gets a piece of it.

Al Cimaglia: Hawthorne Racecourse Late Pick 4 Analysis | Sunday, July 17, 2022

by Al Cimaglia

Hawthorne Racecourse will have 12 races set to go tonight. The 0.50 Late Pick 4 starts in Race 9. The sequence has a $15,000 guaranteed pool, and it will be my focus.

Comments and selections below are based on a fast track.

Race 9

5-Incredible Man (5/2)-Tried a different tactic in getting on the point and almost lasted. That may not be the plan tonight but should be a player regardless.
7-Fox Valley Monaco (2-1)-Has been consistent since shipping back to Illinois. Willfong should put in play and it looks like this could be the time for the 2nd picture of the year.

Race 10

3-Fox Valley Jasper (1-1)-Jasper is making only the 3rd start of his freshman season and looks like a good one. Seems to have a nose for the wire and has some versatility.
6-Henry The Horse (7/2)-This is another game 2-year-old that tries hard without the best of trips. Certainly, looks like a main player here.

Race 11

5-Ms Good Goobly Goo (9/5)-Could be over bet but tough to leave out. Shows decent speed and should enjoy the company.
6-Ain't She Special (15-1)-Had a rough trip in last but kept coming. Willing to take a swing at this price and 2nd time Lasix could help.
9-KP'S Magic Macy (12-1)-Will take a stab at a price in a chalky sequence. This filly could benefit from some lively fractions and that looks like a possibility.

Race 12

2-Marys Pretty Girl (6-1)-Qualified nicely on 7-9 with Leonard in the bike but he steers his own (#6) so Husted takes over. This mare has won 7 of 23 in Stickney and could surprise at a square price if fires hot off the bench.
4-Eliza Dushku N (7/2)-Veteran mare doesn't often win these days but lands in a soft spot. Comes off a good try to finish 2nd but faded late. May have met a beatable field.

0.50 Late Pick 4

5,7/3,6/5,6,9/2,4
Total Bet=$12
