TimeformUS Saratoga Horses in Focus for Thursday, Aug. 1, 2019

Race 7: Blue Atlas (#5)
Has improved since the trainer switch to Horacio De Paz, who can win at Saratoga.
Was facing a deceptively strong field at Delaware last time and is competitive off that effort.
Is versatile enough to be up close or rally from off the pace.

Race 9: Rocketry (#8)
Relishes the added distance that he gets to work with in this spot.
Ran deceptively well when closing into a slow pace against the bias in the Brooklyn.
Joel Rosario’s incomparable patience should be a great asset in this marathon race.
9-5 on ML

Race 10: Waynes Footsteps (#3)
Should play out as the controlling speed from this inside post position going a distance where front-runners are dangerous.
Ran very well in his final turf start of 2018, chasing off the rail on a day when you wanted to be inside.
Appears to be working well for his return.
