Peck: Pick three play at Saratoga for Thursday, Aug. 27
I like the latter part of Thursday’s card at Saratoga but am not wild about the last race, so I'll play the pick three starting with the 7th:
RACE 7: PINK FREUD LIVE was sharp in victory against maidens in that last one, and a repeat of that figure would make her very tough here. NO TUNES closed well for the show in her latest, at Monmouth. DOT PRODUCT is another with a decent closing kick but she also has some early zip. SONGBOOK has been away since the maiden score in May but this barn does well off intermediate layoffs.
A's: 5, 8
B's: 6, 9
C's: NONE
RACE 8: ALJALELA is my attempt at creating some distance in this sequence. This is a tough race where several are tough to separate but if one can be essentially "singled" -- especially a non-favorite -- it could lead to a strong play. She came home quickly in that allowance score last time. Also using ALL IN FUN, PARTISAN POLITICS, and BUGLE.
A's: 7
B's: 1, 3
C's: 6
RACE 9: NATURAL ORDER doesn't win often but he may be in his best form since arriving in the U. S. Also keying Mid-Atlantic shipper CAP'N RAYMOND and possible favorite DECENT, and morning-line choice ASSET INFLATION as a backup.
A's: 4, 5, 7
B's: 2
C's: NONE
