Timeform US SmartPlays: Friday July 22
Timeform's US team pick out three bets from Saratoga and Evangeline on Friday.
"The 9-y-o veteran looks a fair price at 5/1 on the Morning Line forecast..."
Chipit - Saratoga 19:06
With three potential front-runners in the field, this should set up for Todd Pletcher's class-dropper Chipit to come from a stalking position. Two of those aforementioned pace horses, John Eddie and Roll Tide Roll, could battle it out for the minor honours.
Friend of Indy - Evangeline 23:50
Friend of Indy looks the like the lone speed in the Evangeline opener, and is a strong fancy to make all in this company. Macandales has been behind the selection a few times, and is likely to chase him home again.
No Rules Now - Evangeline 02:05
No Rules Now switches from turf to dirt and gets a drop in class for this $5k claimer. The 9-y-o veteran looks a fair price at 5/1 on the Morning Line forecast. The consistent Lighter Fluid should be thereabouts, as usual.
