TimeformUS Saratoga Horses in Focus for Sunday, Aug. 11, 2019
Race 1: One Eyed Jack (#2)
Bred to stretch out, being out of a dam who is a full sister to turf router Doctor Mounty and a half to dirt router Dabster.
Compromised by a slow pace in his debut when gamely chasing home the two early leaders.
That debut speed figure was validated when runner-up Free Enterprise came back to run a strong second at Saratoga.
5-2 on ML

Race 5: Mama Mary (#8)
Has been intended for turf in all 6 starts, but has gotten only 2 chances to run over it.
A few horses have returned to run faster out of her last race, indicating that the speed figures could probably be higher.
Appears to be working very well since her last victory.
5-1 on ML
Race 8: Cookie Dough (#2)
Her last 4 TimeformUS Speed Figures are faster than all of her rivals have run yet this year.
Did well to hang on for second in the Victory Ride after setting a very fast pace, indicated by red color-coded pace figures.
Has the stamina to handle 7 furlongs, since she’s excelled going longer.
9-5 on ML
Race 9: Sister Peacock (#3)
Four-for-four sprinting, having only lost going a mile or farther.
May be better on turf than her form suggests, since 3 of her 4 turf efforts have come in route races.
Showed the ability to rate alongside another horse in her last two starts, so she may be able to adapt her running style in this speed-laden field.
8-1 on ML
