Pick for Friday July 26, 2024



Amsterdam Stakes
6 1/2 Furlongs | Open | 3 Year Olds | G2 STAKES | PURSE: $200,000


Track: Saratoga

Surface: Dirt

Race: 3


Horse: Jefferson Street (ML 8-5)


Field (in post position order):

1. World Record (ML 3-1)
2. Donegal Momentum (ML 4-1)
3. Pure Force (ML 9-2)
4. Jefferson Street (ML 8-5)
5. Valentine Candy (ML 3-1)



This is a very surprisingly short field of five considering this is a stakes race with a purse of $200,000.

Nonetheless, it looks to be a one-horse race, in my opinion, with Jefferson Street as a dominant [one-horse race] favorite.

Maybe that is the reason that this race is a five-horse field with not many trainers/owners wanting to go against Jefferson Street.


Last time we saw Jefferson Street in action was on June 7, 2024, in which, he galloped to an eight-length victory in a first-level allowance race at Saratoga on the Belmont day undercard.


So bet Jefferson Street (ML 8-5) to win.

Jefferson Street will win this race in dominant fashion again.

Jefferson Street's final odd will most likely be right around 4/5 as very heavy favorite in the betting.

This is the easiest 8/5 money you'll ever going to get on the card at Saratoga or at any other racetracks on this Friday July 26, 2024.

Take this easy money 8/5 (or at whatever the price is -- 4/5 is my guess) and leave the racetrack as a winner.

Hey, a win is a win instead of chasing some longshots in hope of a big payoff as most horseplayers often do to no avail.


There you have it: Easy money!
