[Kasept]

BELMONT PARK


POST-SCRATCHES


Races remain on turf, but stay aware as rain could affect the CLM'r 6th; Would anticipate that the Stakes 8th stays on. More later..


4th: CLM/N2L, F&M-3+, 6f (Empire 6, P3, DD)

$419k Empire 6 C/O starts here and it's a wide open group with 4.5-5 droppers. Think you absolutely need to spread to guarantee passage forward. Pace looks honest..

5th: NY-MSW, 2yo, 1m (P5, G/S, P3, DD)

NY-bred MDN's and those that have run have been just fair including favorites Work Out & Brew Pub that have compiled a record of 6/0-3-1-1 combined. Improvement from any of the four 2nd timers or a big first out from Bloom/Thomas Orb gelding Polpis would not surprise..
