3 Jockey and Trainers to keep an eye on coming from Belmont Meet Luis Saez; Always has a great meet in Saratoga but usually finishes as the #4-7 Jockey at the Saratoga Meet. Saez won the Gulfstream Champions meet and has been in the Top 3 jockeys the whole Belmont Spring/Summer Meet. Robertino Diodoro/ Angel Arroyo; The duo caught fire early in the NYRA racing year and have been on fire ever since. Diodoro was winning at a 29% clip at Belmont and Angel Arroyo was on 95% Diodoro s of mounts. This team had a great Belmont meet and winning on horses with good value, this trend should continue in Saratoga. *Longshots*Dylan Davis; Won a good amount of races at Belmont and those wins came later in the meet. He was winning on high valued horses on all surfaces and distances. When Dylan Davis teams up with David Duggan or Mitchell Friedmen the horse is usually a huge price. You do not want to miss out if they team up and bring home a huge score.
