TimeformUS Saratoga Horses in Focus for Wednesday, July 24, 2019
Race 2: The Honest Toun (#5)
Closed well into a slow pace in his debut while altering course late.
Should appreciate the stretch-out to 7 furlongs given his disposition and physicality.
Likely won’t have to improve much on the 93 TimeformUS Speed Figure he earned in his debut.

Race 6: Get Set (#4)
Bred to handle turf as a son of Enthusiastic Gal, an accomplished turf mare who runs in the 9th race today.
Ran deceptively well in his debut when chasing a talented pair before racing greenly on the turn.
DRF Formulator Fact: Over the past 5 years, Steve Klesaris is 7 for 25 (28%, $3.66 ROI) with second-time-starting maidens.
8-1 on ML
Race 7: Six Percent (#8)
Showed improved form when stretched out to today’s one-mile distance on the dirt last time.
Bred to handle turf as a son of Central Banker out of a multiple turf-winning dam who has produced 2 turf winners.
DRF Formulator Fact: Over the past 5 years, Brad Cox is 5 for 8 (63%, $4.54 ROI) with first-time turfers in stakes races.

Race 10: Take Charge Aubrey (#5)
Arguably ran her best race going this distance at Saratoga last season.
Has earned some of the best speed figures in this field, but may get overlooked due to the presence of so many debut winners.
Reportedly worked well in her recent 5-furlong drill on July 13 and may be ready to go off the layoff.
12-1 on ML
