9/21: Belmont Park (4th-9th)
Highlight of Thursday was Awesome Feather's 2nd race as a 4yo, which was overwhelmingly the tender champion's career best. The 10 for 10 filly will face an ultimate challenge in the Breeders' Cup Distaff, but will arrive there as a far more imposing presence than many imagined before this impressive performance. Chad Brown sounded supremely confident on ATR Monday discussing the way the Stronach miss was coming up to Thursday's try and he and his team deserve tremendous credit for their careful, dilligent handling of her. Her status will help make the Friday of Breeders' Cup that much more appealing.
Nice 7th-9th P3 and double linking Big Business & Pianist helped carry Thursday's Belmont action, though I'm still not sure why I short-armed the P4 try which cost the solid $240 tote. Hope everyone did well. Was rooting for a carryover for Friday, so having purloined a glance at the 4th-9th, here's some action.. BELMONT PARK POST-SCRATCHES 4th: CLM, 3+, 8.5f-IT (P6, P3, DD) Nothing clever to impart with top choices simply better than price options.. Most Likely: #7 Veiled Prophet 7-2 4th Next Best: #6 Kippers n' Eggs 5-2 5th Exotics Use: #1 Concert Stage 4-1 2nd Super Add: #2 Unaccountable 3-1 WON ($8.00) 5th: NY-OC/N2X, 3+, 7f-T (G/S, P3, DD) 'Solar' the one to beat, Karakorum Legend the preferable side of the Rice entry and Gimme Credit in dangerous hands, but that doesn't preclude you from reaching for value players. First time 5yo Sky Blue Pink (15-1), cutback candidate Fourseventeen (8-1), board regular Hear the Footsteps (6-1), plucky Barrel of Love (10-1) and mutuel stalwart Isn'tlovejustgrand (15-1) all catch the eye as exotics candidates.. Most Likely: #8 Driven by Solar 3-1 9th Best Value: #6 Sky Blue Pink 15-1 5th Next Best: #1a Karakorum Legend 5-2 3rd Exotics Use: #7 Fourseventeen 8-1 7th 6th: MDN CLM, 3+, 7f (P4, P3, DD) Giving D'tiger a chance with move to slick outfit and rise in class.
