    With six days left in the 2026 meet there’s still time to benefit from the trends that have come into focus throughout the first 39 days of racing. Favorites fared well in Week 9 and were around the meet average, winning 18 of 51 races (35.3%) versus the meet-to-date totals of 34.7%. The average win payout for the meet is $12.10 over 400 winners across 398 races (there have been two dead heats). This was due mainly to the Week 8 upsets involving well-bet horses or the favorite ending up on the

    A look at turf sprint consistency through eight weeks (opens the original)

    We’ve reached the penultimate week of the Saratoga Race Course meeting, with Saturday’s big Travers Stakes looming on the horizon. Favorites took a back seat in Week 8, winning only 13 of 48 races (27.1%) versus the meet-to-date totals of 34.6%. We expected that exotic payouts would increase over the meet average, but they decreased. This was due mainly to the fact that Week 8 upsets involved well-bet horses, or the favorite ended up on the back end of exactas and trifectas. The $1 exacta be

     It’s hard to believe there are just three weeks left at Saratoga before heading downstate for the grand opening of Belmont Park. Let’s make the most of the final weeks at the Spa. Favorites dominated in Week 7, winning 24 of 50 races (48%) versus the meet-to-date totals of 35.8%. This affected exotic payouts, which averaged $29.44 for a $1 exacta bet versus $43.22 for the meet to date. Trifectas suffered as well, paying an average of $82.60 for $0.50 trifecta against $139.41 through seven

    Excerpt · English

    Read excerpt

    We’re just past the mid-point of the Saratoga meeting and through 25 days of the 46-day meeting with plenty of metrics to digest. Favorites took a back seat in Week 6 winning only 13-of-57 races (22.8%) versus the meet-to-date totals of 33.1%. Meet-to-date, the rail has been the single most productive post with 50 wins, approximately 20% of all winners, with a steady drop-off as posts move outward — typical of a meet with a mix of route and sprint racing where inside posts carry a modest pos
