Forego Stakes at Saratoga
Maybe I'm biased because Forego is my favorite horse of all time, but tomorrow's contest seems to be one of the most interesting heats of the meet. There appears to be some genuine live longshots - especially Midnight Lute, not only because of his BL rank, but also for a 1:22 and change work from the gate recently. He can closely stalk the pace and take this if there are some speedballs going on early.
Like Now hasn't a Grade 1 win, and his Grade 3 win on Aqueduct's Inner Track was against a weaker field, but the numbers look good if he gets loose on the lead and if one isn't fearful of a bounce off a best ever last line.
There's a very possible false favorite in High Finance according to my pace lines, but I'm here to learn so if anyone has some insight into this one, I'm all ears - or eyes as this medium would deem more appropriate.
My pacelines were based on mostly a last race scenario, unless there was a distance or course excuse.
