2 for 3 with 8/5 and 7/1 winners with a 7/1 2nd at Belmont Friday is just what the Ductor ordered. I can’t believe these tickets are free, this is such a great ride. The generous Conductor has plenty more up his sleeve today too. Unbelievable. Skip.
Race 3: 7 Furlongs. (Turf) F.Mdn 90k
#2 Romeinaday (12/1) – The Conductor was close to keeping this filly to himself, but I was able to talk him into sharing. Feel free to tip the scribe too, without me you passengers would get nothing. This filly ran like it was a prep in her Belmont debut last time. She closed from last to split the field and had a mammoth gallop out past the winner. She draws well to the inside today, will appreciate the added distance, and will take a massive step forward with that last race under her belt. Just like the Conductor’s Empire, Rome wasn’t built in one day.
Race 5: 1 1/4 Mile. G2 Suburban Stakes
#1 Tonal Impact (4/1) – Linda Rice and Jose Ortiz have been unbeatable during this Belmont meet. This gelding ran a huge figure last time and now stretches out from a mile. This is a weak field with a terrible favorite in #4 Charge It (3/5), who is much better going shorter. The distance will be no problem for Tonal Impact and the Conductor can see the bettors cursing Linda when he runs huge again.
Race 10: 1 1/4 Mile. (Inner Turf) G1 Belmont Derby Invitational Stakes
*Gullet Shot of the Day #10 Redistricting (8/1) – The Conductor doesn’t see any bonified Grade 1 horses in this field, so he’s looking for a colt with upside in this year’s Belmont Derby. #11 The Foxes (7/2) is the class of the field, but an outside draw and making his first start in the US is a lot to ask at a short price. Redistricting was ultra impressive in his debut last time. He showed a serious turn of foot and freak potential. The Conductor will call him a certified mower. When’s the last time he did that? Oh wait that was yesterday when More Than Looks won easy at 7/1. Skip.
