Rocket Picks 🚀: Saratoga and Del Mar for August 19, 2023

Let’s get another big Saturday 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 9: Alabama Stakes (G1)

#2 Wet Paint was solid over this track last time out and should get a better setup today. She also should like this distance. #10 Defining Purpose was impressive in her last start, and seems to be improving with each of her starts.

Race 10: Allowance Optional Claiming

#9 Verbal was a solid third last time out against similar horses at Belmont Park. He should show up with a solid effort again today. #5 Whisper Not goes for two in a row today after an impressive win at 14-1 over this track in his last start. We will also use #1 Duke of Hazzard on the ticket.

Race 11: Maiden Claiming

#10 Henson was a solid third in his debut race, which was on the dirt, so he will benefit from this race being taken off of the lawn. Cox seems to be heating up at this meet as well. #14 Blue Plate Special will also benefit from the race being taken off of the turf as he was the best of the main track only entries.

THE TICKET

$1 Pick 3 (Races 9-11) 2,10 / 1,5,9 / 10,14 – $12
