BELMONT PARK


POST-SCRATCHES


7th: NY-ALW/N1X, 3+, 1m (P4, P3, DD, Super)

Rather salacious state bred group going for its' first level hurdle here to start the P4, and this might be the day's best individual betting race. Southbeachsandy gets slight nod as the one to beat, but there are three juicy prices in Roaring Conquest (10-1), Here Comes Vinny (30-1) and Artie Luvsto Party (8-1) that tempt and tease. Suggesting a tri play below getting Here Comes Vinny into the money, but use your own approach making sure to liberally include the longshots..

#2 Roaring Conquest has SCR'D..

Most Likely: #3 Southbeachsandy 3-1 2nd
Best Value: #6 Here Comes Vinny 30-1 7th
Exotics Use: #8 Artie Luvsto Party 8-1 5th
Super Add: #5 Bigger is Bettor 4-1 3rd

<$15 TRI PLAY: 3 with 1-2-4-5-8 with 6 (1x5x1 = 5 x $2 = 10) & 3 with 6 with 1-2-4-5-8 (1x1x5 = $5) = $15


8th: MDN CLM, F&M-3+, 6f-IT (P3, DD, Super)

Quirky turf sprint with 3 firsters and some well-bred underachievers signed on..

Best Value: #9 Houliana 6-1 5th
Next Best: #3 Amirahy 4-1 WON-DH ($2.70)
Exotics Use: #8 Big Apple Lady 10-1 6th
Super Add: #7 Turbo Tweaked 8-1 3rd


9th: 61st Vagrancy H. (G2), F&M-3+, 6.5f (DD, Super)

Hilda's Passion obvious towers over this group if close to her best, but there is the conceivable chance that she is tailing off after the enormous performances in Florida. Tidal Pool, Erin Rose, Kid Kate or Streaker would have to improve -- nee, run their career best -- to beat the favorite here. That makes it difficult to approach Hilda's Passion as anything other than a 'single', especially with the Belmont main playing kindly to speed..

Most Likely: #2 Hilda's Passion 3-5 WON ($2.90)
Next Best: #5 Tidal Pool 6-1 3rd
Best Value: #4 Erin Rose 8-1 5th
Exotics Use: #7 Streaker 4-1 4th


10th: CLM/N2L, F&M-3+, 6f-IT (Super)

NOTE: #13 Kaz Dear (20-1) drew in and is worth including in the multis and exotics..

Most Likely: #9 Bobity Boo 7-2 WON ($6.80)
Best Value: #1 Song for Pupcake 5-1 7th
Next Best: #4 Frazzie 3-1 2nd
Super Add: #12 Erma Lee 5-1 4th

CHURCHILL DOWNS


POST-SCRATCHES


7th: CLM, 3+, 6f (P5, P3, DD, Super)

Exotics Use: #1 Saviano 8-1 4th
Super Add: #7 Bad Jenna Lee 15-1 11th

Attfield amazes me over and over... She looks the weakest of his 3 but appears forward going and is the right price. It's a helluva good race. Love the one turn turf mile. Key seems to be if you want to try to go against Miss Keller. G/L Rand!

WO 8th: 56th Nassau (G2), F&M-3+, 1m-T (P3, Super)

Most Likely: #9 Never Retreat 3-1
Best Value: #6 Valli With a Vow 15-1

Super Add: #5 Bay to Bay 8-1

I'm looking forward to betting this race more than any other today.
I am tossing Miss Keller (hard since I have always really liked her.)

If Bay to Bay and Valli both hit the board I will be dancing.

It really depends how much you think the dead rail was in that last race. I bet Miss Keller last time and she had absolutely nothing. Therefore I agree you have to play against.
