7/8: Belmont ($78k Carry)

[Kasept]

Mixed bag of results Saturday with few standout opinions coming to fruition.. Some mediocre triples kept the day afloat, but the multi-race tries were all lousy. The beat in the Churchill nightcap, which would have been helped the afternoon's kitty, was especially agonizing when Kiss With a Twist looked like a winner before Nunnery fought back.. Nice carryover at Belmont with an OK card to attack.. Hope everyone did well Saturday!
