10/10: Belmont; Keeneland; Remington (Late P4's)

[Kasept]

Late P4 sequence went the right way for those that played along, and $760+ mutuel was well worth the investment. Outstanding efforts by all three stakes winner too as Prince Wil I Am, A Z Warrior and Uncle Mo unilaterally elevated their status. At Keeneland, had a few good ideas, particularly in the 2 sprint stakes, but then wiffed in the Futurity and nightcap. Hope everyone did well! Another great day in store with BEL, KEE and the strong Remington/Okie Derby card the focus...
