Belmont Stakes Day is over. A great day for horse racing and a great day to be a passenger. Time to get back to work. Skip.
Race 3: 1 1/16 Mile. (Inner Turf) Clm 30000n2L
#7 Paratus (2/1) – He made a nice middle move into a hot pace vs tougher last time. Dropping in class today, he looks like a cinch to the Conductor against this feeble group.
Race 4; 6½ Furlongs. Clm 40000
#5 Emerald Forest (6/1) – Making his first start at Belmont for the Morley barn, this gelding has back class and early speed in a dirt sprint without much other early pace. He’s working well and Morley is exceptional off the bench. He’s 21% with a +$1.01 ROI this year with starters +46-90 days away. With the bug aboard, he also gets a weight break today
Race 5: 7 Furlongs. (Turf) MC 40000
*Gullet Shot of the Day #2 Billy’s Got Issues (8/1) – This is a wide open maiden claiming race and the Conductor is going to take a stand with ol’ Billy Boy. Switching to turf for the first time last race, he improved and ran a solid 3rd in a merry go round race. He made up ground in the stretch and galloped out with the winner. He draws well here and should appreciate the extra furlong.
