Don't know what the problems are, but this will be third attempt to post up.

Sixth race Saratoga--Holy Moment(1) is a leggy filly who took to Belmont Park's turf and rating while running in blinkers for the second time. The rail draw should not be an issue if she's ridden like she was last time. She was eased back from between horses early in the going and rated seventh. Dominguez angled Holy Moment out at least six-wide(-2) while making a sweeping run to the top. She cleared early in the stretch. I see no reason why she can't come back in today's spot.

Seventh race Saratoga--I loved the big late surge of Silk Route(4) in her graduation run at Belmont Park. Bill Mott brings her back against winners and she can deliver.

Key Silk Route(4) in the exacta and a $1 trifecta with No Acronyms(5), La Cloche(7), Elle Special(8) and Picture Hat(9). 4 with 5-7-8-9. Silk Route was slow early and trailed. Sixth down the backstretch she staged a huge finish despite a snail's pace 3/4 of 1:15.11. No Acronyms(5) staged a strong late run on Monmouth lawn beating claimers and he's the "X" factor at today's level. Who know's what his best level may be? La Cloche(7) was entered in Saturday's Hattie Mosley and scratched. She ran the best race of a five race career when fitted with blinkers. La Cloche was hung wide the opening quarter mile. Fourth over she moved three-wide to the top. When spanked she responded. Elle Special was also entered in Saturday's Mosley and winds up here. She figures to be winging it early. If the course is being kind to speed then she could have a say at boxcars. Picture Hat(9) was competitive in large fields racing in France. She will race on bleeder medication for the first time. She offers some value in the race.
