Monday[‘s (8-25-2014) Power Page and KHSS for Saratoga are ready for download…

SShared Belief and Wicked Strong have established themselves as the two best RIGHT NOW.  The top four are SB, WS, Cali Chrome and Tonalist and I can’t wait for them to square off .   I would like to offer an opinion and see if it turns out to be true when I do the figs on Wednesday or Thursday from this weekend.  That Wicked Strong will have run the best race of the year in losing the Travers.   HE has so much in ground loss and misuse of energy in the first turn that his race was significantly better thanV.E Day.  While V. E. Day ran great, it’s not unusual in horse racing for the best horse to finish 2nd  — and to my eye, that is exactly what happened.

 

That being said, Wicked Strong has not been able to pack two monster trips back to back, The Jim Dandy was a nice tune up but the big effort came in The Travers.  So the big question with him is – can he recover and achieve top form for the Breeders Cup?  Hopefully, we shall find out in what I expect will be an amazing race…
