Before horseplayers make horse racing wagers on the Grade I Travers Stakes on Saturday, they should take a look at a couple of the undercard races.
I’ve analyzed two of the undercard races on Saturday’s Saratoga card where I believe an overlaid bet or two power be found.
One of those races I didn’t analyze in this article is the Mark I King’s Bishop because in my ide reu Discreetly Extract, the 6/5 chalk in the King’s Bishop, can’t be beat.

TV: TVG and HRTV
Race 8
Period: 3:30 pm EST
Ballston Spa Constraint (Grade II)
Purse $200,000. For Fillies And Mares Three-Years-Old And Upward.
1 1/16th miles inner turf
The Saratoga grass course has been much kinder to closers lately. That’s good bulletin for Phola who had way too much to do in the Grade I Diana at the top of the stretch in order to win that race. The pace should be much quicker than the :49 half mile that Phola had to run into in the Grade I Diana as well and her morning line odds are nice.
I’ll make her a part of all of my horse racing wagers on this race on Saturday including putting her on foremost in my trifecta. Cherokee Queen never got a chance to show her best in the Grade III Matchmaker at Monmouth Park in her last after throwing jockey Elvis Trujillo.
She picks up jockey Julien Leparoux and that could make all of the difference in this as Leparoux was aboard in search her victory at Philly Estate two races back. Miss Keller is likely to go off as the favorite in this race because she breaks from the rail, where she can save ground, and is in excellent form.
- Phola
- Cherokee Queen
- Maid Keller
Race 10
Time: 4:38 pm EST
Ballerina Stakes (Grade I)
Purse $250,000. For Fillies And Mares Three-Years-Old And Upward.
7 furlongs over scrap
The show runners should set things up for Jessica Is Undeveloped to win this. Yes, Jessica Is Back has run on the lead but that was in route races. In her last race, a victory in the 6 furlong Grade I Princess Rooney, she sat about 2 to 3 lengths off of the walk before making a big action and beating Warbling to the finish line.
She’s the pick. Informed Settlement will most likely go off as the favorite in this because she’s a multiple Grade I conquering hero that has won 13 out of 18 lifetime races. Regardless, most of her victories have occurred over artificial surfaces.
Undisturbed, the competition does ritual up suitable Informed Decisions’ style and it’s hard for me to see her finishing worse than aide-de-camp in this. Rightly So is the speed of the speed and could wire this field if nobody is brave enough to go with her.
She gets the rail and will face Warbling or Qualia to push her. If neither one of them does, then she’s the one that will most likely become high on a alight her picture taken.
- Jessica Is Break weighing down on
- Up on Decision
- Rightly So
Good luck!
