Rocket Picks 🚀: Saratoga and Del Mar for August 18, 2023

Let’s get another big Friday of racing kicked off today! Today, we will look at the late Pick 3 from at Saratoga. We will also have full card selections for Del Mar for the paid Rockets, so be sure to check those out. Let’s GO!

Below is our FREE Late Pick 3 for Saratoga:

Race 8: Skidmore Stakes

#2 Ship Cadet is the horse that I like best now that the race has ben taken off of the turf. He should be the one they have to run down. #12 El Grande O ran ok over the dirt in his debut and should be ok on the surface in this spot today.

Race 9: Claiming

#5 Happy Farm was a solid third at this level last time out at Saratoga and should compete with this field today. #6 Thinkaboutit goes for two in a row after picking up a solid win over this track in his last start. We will also use #7 Cees Get Degrees on the ticket.

Race 10: Allowance

#1 Rally Squirrel has experience over the dirt, including wins in his last two starts over the surface. #3 Bourbon Chase has the most experience of all the runners on the dirt. This is the horse who will benefit most from the surface change.

THE TICKET

$1 Pick 3 (Races 8-10) 2,12 / 5,6,7 / 1,3 – $12
