SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. – Trainer Michael Trombetta got his Saratoga meet off to a perfect start going 2 for 2 the first week. He won on opening day with the first-time starter Escape Fund ($71) and came back Friday to win a starter allowance with Universal Payday ($11.80). “Pleasant way to get going,” Trombetta said. Trombetta said he liked Escape Fund, a daughter of Lea, but was concerned whether she could overcome the inside post sprinting in her debut. “I liked her; she had trained good,” Trombetta said. “What I didn’t like was getting the one hole first time out. I thought that would be a whole hell of a lot to overcome. It just worked out pretty good.” Universal Payday had not raced for four months, owing in part to limited opportunities caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. :: Play Saratoga with DRF!

Trombetta’s next Saratoga starter is Thursday when he runs Souper Energizer in a maiden turf sprint. He has been running long since his debut last October. Later in the meet, Trombetta has the 2-year-old Flight to Paradise to run long on the grass and Sweet Souper Sweet for the $85,000 Bolton Landing on Aug. 18. Sweet Souper Sweet won a maiden race over the synthetic surface at Woodbine. Win Win Win, second in an allowance race to Complexity at Belmont in early July, will be nominated to the $85,000 Alydar Stakes on Aug. 9.
