Travis and Scott chat about the 2019 summer meeting at Saratoga and then dive head first into the loaded card in Upstate New York on Saturday afternoon. The guys begin with a deep look at the Midsummer Derby, including a discussion of whether 5-2-morning line favorite Tacitus is worth using as a key horse, as well as which horses could provide value in the horizontal or vertical wagers and which runners are worth fading. Then, Scott and Travis discuss the other Grade 1 events on the card, including the Forego, the Ballerina, the H. Allen Jerkens, and the Personal Ensign.
