Sunday’s (8-12-2018) Power Page and PLUS for Saratoga and Del Mar are ready for download…

Sometimes handicapping is as simple as backing a Chad Brown horse or a Peter Miller horse, with very little discrimination.  But these apparent phases, are just that phases.  But we have to acknowledge when these types of “runs” happen and include these HOT trainers in our plays.  There is no use in fighting these trends…

Understand, that the JJPPs are first a RATING service and then a Handicapping service.  All of which rises out of my Speed figures.  So for us, the horse’s performance presents before we  make any adjustments for other handicapping factors.  So keep this in mind as you decide how to put your plays together…

Saratoga was suppose to be FAIR sky’s mostly on Saturday, but that didn’t turn out, with the 4th, 5th and 11th being moved to the Main Track and the Turf races being run with greater give in the ground than initially expected.

The most interesting and even inspiring runs of the day belong to Voodoo Song who emulated Fourstardave in the Fourstardave.  Robert Bruce was electrifying in the Arlington Million, with an amazing stretch run and Instagrand is a truly impressive looking 2-year old colt.
