For this Thursday, August 7 article, Jeremy Plonk shares everything you need to know for the racing card for Saratoga.
Saratoga | Race 5 | 3:27 pm ET
#6 Shadow Surge (4-1 morning line odds) returns from a year-plus layoff for a George Weaver barn that has been exceptional after extended vacations. Well-backed favorite in Keeneland debut and since has been gelded and working fast in the morning for this return. Weaver maidens have been on point at the current Saratoga meeting.
Win bet #6.
Saratoga | Race 7 | 4:36 pm ET
#12 Abientot (8-1 morning line odds) gets a race with an exorbitant amount of early speed to set up for her late rally. She won over this course and distance last summer and rallied for a good third in the Coronation Cup here July 11 in her most recent start. Should be flying late under regular rider Dylan Davis.
Win-place bet #12.
