Jockey Leslie Mawing atop Highwaytwentyseven (5) wins the second race of the day as the Tampa Bay Downs

There is plenty of great horse racing across America on Wednesday, including at Saratoga race track. We have been in fine form with our picks for a long time and are up +279.86 units with our race selections to our recommended stakes dating back to August 5, 2021. Let’s keep it rolling!

Here are our best bets for today’s action at Saratoga.

1:39 pm ET Saratoga (Race 2) – Knot Anymore Evens (3-star play)

The winner of 2 of her 6 previous starts, the daughter of Goldencents recorded an impressive victory when taking a 6 1/2 furlong allowance at Charles Town Races on her penultimate start. She had a subsequent winner back in 2nd on that occasion and the 4-year-old faded when upped to 7 furlongs when 3rd at the same venue subsequently.

Dropping back in trip today is a positive move and she is taken to provide trainer Brittany T Russell with a first winner at this meeting. 

2:49 pm ET Saratoga (Race 4) – Bella Sofia 1/2 (3-star play)

Balla Sofia made all the running when delivering a half-length victory in the Bed o’ Roses Stakes, a Grade 2 7-furlong event at Belmont Park last month.

She delivered triple-digit speed figures on all bar one of her 8 previous starts and, having beaten today’s rival Frank’s Rockette in the Grade 3 Vagrancy Handicap over 6 1/2 furlongs at the same venue previously, the daughter of Awesome Patriot looks up to completing a double to register a second victory at this track. 

5:39 pm ET Saratoga (Race 9) – High Opinion 7/5 (2-star play)

High Opinion recorded a stakes success when taking out the Neshaminy Match Series Stakes over a mile and 1/16th on a good turf track at Parx last month. She tracked the pace for much of that contest with today’s rider Flavien Prat in the saddle.

She has shown a liking for this venue in the past having finished in the first 2 in both her previous starts there and looks capable of recording a 4th win in 14 career starts.
