Mark Hoffman's Saratoga selections - day #25 (8/20) : Record 68-231 ($493.30)

Race #1

Exiled Princess - got caught late going a mile downstate at this level & claimed out of that event, turns back to a sprint for new connections today.

Corey's Coming - drops to this beaten claimer level for new trainer today, has a win & 3rd place finish at this distance over the course.

Exotic & multi-race runners : Lights Out Lisa - Peaches

Race #2

Cadazzle - first time starter from Todd & Johnny V.......you know the drill!

Miss Dora - even third in trip over the course in last start, turns back a panel today.

Exotic & multi-race runners : Alseera - Tap for Luck

Race #3

Southern Accents - 2nd best in overnight stake going this distance here, gets the call in short field

Gemswick Park - returns off eight month layoff for second start of the year, even 2nd in career debut last summer at 42-1 right here.

Exotic & multi-race runners : Sneaky Girl - Moontune Missy

Race #4

Miss Marla - switches trainer today after setting the pace in last start at Finger Lakes, trainer shows good numbers with such move.

Millie Money - first time starter from another automatic; Linda Rice.

Exotic & multi-race runners : Hardwicke Hall - Copious Notes

Race #5

Frances Gardner - goes for Ralph Nicks today after non-effort in the Virginia Oaks last time out, should get the trip in race void of speed.

Storm Showers - broke maiden turf sprinting in last start at Belmont , stretches out for the unusual combination owner / trainer combo of Farish & McGaughey.

Exotic & multi-race runners : Kathern's Kitten - Colour the Wind

Race #6

Rani Baba - a victim of off the track circumstance when finishing 2nd to the "notorious" Pelican Lake last time out, maybe karma will work out for this filly today.

Officer Flirt - this one has the beginnings of looking like "you know what!" with three straight in-the-money finishes at the beaten favorite, tread lightly.

Exotic & multi-race runners : Glass Path - Marie's Babe

Race #7

Jacky Juice - even effort last time out at this level as the favorite, gets the call again!

Miss Odette - goes from turf to dirt and drops into maiden claimer, could spell "all or nothing" today.

Exotic & multi-race runners : Sister Berta - Glance My Way

Race #8

Great Gracie Dane - just got up at the wire versus cheaper last time out going slightly shorter, taken to upset this group of older statebred filly & mares.

Chestoria - the old hard hitting mare just missed as the favorite last time out, just may have another one in her today.

Exotic & multi-race runners : You Go West Girl - Paraiba

Race #9

Conspicuous - just missed at this level in last, clean trip needed today.

Orbiston Parva - just missed breaking last time out in off-the-turf event at Arlington Park , interesting mid-west shipper going into this spot.

Exotic & multi-race runners : Kiss of Fire - Keith's Kitten


Hoffy's "Horse to Beat" play of the day (8-21) - Rani Baba (6th)
