TimeformUS Saratoga Horses in Focus for Friday, July 12, 2019

Race 3: Conquest Hardcandy (#6)
Had a valid excuse last time when getting into an early duel with heavy favorite Valedictorian.
Is receiving significant class relief as she drops out of graded stakes company.
Those recent TimeformUS Speed Figures of 112 and 111 are higher numbers than favorite Complicit has ever earned.
4-1 on ML

Race 6: Hay Dakota (#11)
Was very impressive in victory last time, easily spurting away from the speeds in a race that fell apart behind him.
The two best races he’s run during the past year have come for Eddie Kenneally.
DRF Formulator Fact: Over the past five years, Kenneally is 3 for 8 (38 percent, $2 ROI) second off the claim with last-out winners. All eight finished in the money.
9-2 on ML

Race 7: Citizen Matzo (#3)
Would be very tough for this field if she gets back to her turf win against open company from Tampa.
That most recent effort on dirt is actually encouraging since that’s not her preferred surface.
Trainer Roy Lerman is enjoying a fantastic year, winning at 40 percent.

Race 9: Qurbaan (#8)
Is getting significant class relief after a steady diet of Grade 1 races.
That Manhattan loss was not as poor as it seems since he ran off when too keen in the early going.
Joel Rosario should fit him well since he’s so patient and prior riders have allowed him to make the lead too soon.
