This is from a Todays Racing Digest e-mail I got:

I put together a "New York hit list" for Saratoga 2009, and I encourage all of our NYRA players to pay special attention to when these crafty training outfits show up in the entries with their first start of the meet. There's an excellent chance they'll be in tip-top shape, ready to run and not far from the winner's circle.
Bob Baffert, Chad Brown, Thomas Bush, Mark Casse, Wallace Dollase, Anthony Dutrow, Richard Dutrow Jr., John Fahey III, Patrick Kelly, Steve Klesaris, Michael Maker, John Morrison, Patrick Reynolds, Barclay Tagg, Wesley Ward, Ronny Werner

Terranova made the top five Hit list on the DRF trainer watch. Last year he only won 3 races from 21 starters, but ran second 9 times. He has 19 at the Spa and 20 at Belmont. His biggest string in years. Franny Fued runs in a tough spot in the Schuylerville opening day, and has a good shot.

Key owners last 3 meets:

Edit: For correction. I left his 21 starts total for '08 out of first line totals. (Things weren't adding correctly.) His horses as noted are well bet, still, I'd rather use them underneath.

Great set of posts here. Thank you, CountryStan, BL, Lukeydog, and particularly Grits and that meticulous research. I'm printing this one out, using and crediting.
Also thanks this day to Publius for the crystal ball call on the James Marvin Stakes, and to Jay Trotter for the very best laugh of the day. :)
