Rocket Picks 🚀: Del Mar and Saratoga for August 18, 2022

It’s another big weekend of racing so lets day HOT! Last week was another solid success for the Rockets. For the free pick 4, we will head back to Saratoga for the Late Pick 4 on the card. We will also have full card selections for Del Mar for the paid Rockets, so be sure to check those out.

Below is our free late Pick 4 for Saratoga:

Saratoga August 18, 2022

Race 7: Claiming

#3 Charles Chrome runs for Jacobson for the first time today, while dropping down in class, which should help his chances. It will be interesting to see if Jacobson returns and has immediate success after dominating these types of races for years. #2 Veterans Beach also drops in class after a fifth place effort last time out.

Race 8: Allowance

#4 Winit looks to make it two in a row in this spot after a solid maiden special weight victory at Belmont Park in his last start. #3 Nabakov takes a big drop in class after a poor effort last time out in the Dwyer Stakes (G3). He should rebound well today.

Race 9: New York Stallion Series Stakes

#3 Royal Dancer should be the one getting to the front in this spot, which could be dangerous going one mile on this turf course. #2 Robyn and Eli nearly won at this level two starts back; however, she must rebound from an extremely poor effort last time out over this track.

Race 10: Maiden Claiming

#1 Uragano takes a significant drop in class after two decent efforts on the turf. #8 Loz will be taking a similar drop in class for this race as well. It seems to be now or never for these two, who should outclass this group.
