Pick for Saturday September 2, 2023:

Jockey Club Gold Cup Stakes

1 1/4 Miles | Open | 3 Year Olds And Up | G1 STAKES | PURSE: $1,000,000

Track: Saratoga
Race: 11

Horse: Proxy (ML 2-1)

Field (in post position order):

1. Proxy (ML 2-1)
2. Unbridled Bomber (ML 15-1)
3. Warrior Johny (ML 20-1)
4. Rattle N Roll (ML 9-5)
5. Clapton (ML 8-1)
6. Tyson (ML 5-1)
7. Duke of Love (ML 15-1)
8. Bright Future (ML 6-1)


Bet Proxy (ML 2-1) to win and place.

Yes, that is right: WIN/PLACE.

Proxy (ML 2-1) will WIN the Jockey Club Gold Cup Stakes.

So put a lot of money on Proxy to WIN/PLACE to make it worthwhile and justified going to the racetrack.

Proxy's final odd will most likely be right around 6/5 or even lower (in my opinion).

Take that easy money 2/1 (or at any price) and leave the racetrack as a winner.
