Below are my horse-by-horse takes on the 55 entrants in Saturday’s six Grade 1 stakes races at Saratoga (now 54 runners after the early scratch of La Verdad from the Ballerina). It would be a great lineup of high-quality racing even without the Triple Crown winner in the Travers.  The six Grade 1 races comprise Saturday’s pick six with a guaranteed pool of $250,000, and the last four (races 8-11) make up the late pick four, guaranteed at $1 million. For those unfamiliar with the format of the cheat sheet below: “Last” equals last-race Beyer Speed Figure; “Top” equals career-top Beyer on the surface of today’s race; “HWL” equals highest winning level for each horse. Safe trips, smart bets, and good luck to all.
