Complimentary horses to watch and trip notes for visitors of AGameofSkill.com
ELLIS PARK
ORCHESTRATION (Race 5 at Ellis Park, June 2, 2021) – Bounced around at the start and then unleashed a huge late run to get up for 2nd and blow past the winner just past the wire. Big gallop out from the Chad Brown first time starter by Flatter.
SARATOGA
MAINSTAY (Race 9 at Saratoga, July 15, 2021) – In watching the head-on replay you will see that 2yo filly from the Robert Reid, Jr. barn stumbled badly from her two post. However, she recovered like a real pro and ran a huge race to be 2nd to the second choice and wire-to-wire winner Pretty Birdie. She was about 4 lengths clear of the show horse.
OMAHA CITY (Race 8 at Saratoga, July 15, 2021) – This talented turf runner finished extremely well to get up for 2nd in the Quick Call Stakes. Trained by a 3% barn, this son of Temple City had not been out since mid April at Gulfstream. Super honest and looks primed for top efforts at 6 1/2 furlongs or less.
EKHTIBAAR (Race 1 at Saratoga, opening day July 15, 2021) – The 8yo shipper from Parx showed a new dimension by rallying from off the pace. Broke from a tough outside post in this 9 furlong dirt opener and was gained furiously on the leader in the lane, and that rival was drifting in and out in the final 1 1/16th. This old timer loves Saratoga and could surprise at the same or similar level next out.
