TimeformUS Saratoga Horses in Focus for Thursday, July 18, 2019

Race 1: After You (#6)
The Pace Projector is predicting a situation favoring horses on or near the lead, and he is predicted to be in front.
Earned a 98 TimeformUS Speed Figure in his maiden win as a 2-year-old, and some of his rivals aren’t even running that fast now.
Has been put through a series of rigorous drills for this return for Neil Drysdale.
7-2 on ML

Race 4: He’s No Lemon (#2)
Has been steadily improving ever since Graham Motion stretched him out to this distance earlier in the year.
Was ambitiously entered in the Belmont Derby, where he was excluded on the also-eligible list.
Barely lost to the classy Pillar Mountain, who looks formidable against a tougher N2X group later in the week.
8-5 on ML

Race 9: Roaming Union (#6)
Has shown subtle improvement since the claim by Rob Atras.
Is coming in off some of the best efforts of his career in a race where all of his other main rivals are in questionable form.
Has always been slightly better around two turns, so he should appreciate the stretch-out to 1 1/8 miles.
5-1 on ML
