Belmont Friday June 10th

[Kitan]

Have to get this up early...

Race 1:
#2 Preservationist: Jerkens only 16 1-0-2 3yo FTS in dirt sprints @ BEL but he's been red hot so far this meet, as has this one in the AM.
#5 Whitegate: Looked half decent in the sales work once he got going. With the maturity he could rapidly improve.
#3 Mini Sala
#1 One More Round

Race 2:
#6 Daring Duchess: Fitter for this than last and was pushed to basically the outside fence at GP. Looks live value here.
#1 Evidently
#2 Pine Needles
#7 Off Limits

Race 3:
#2 Mei Ling: Should have it all her own way up front.
#6 Theogony
#4 Joint Return
#5 Milaya

Race 4:
#1 Saratoga Two Step: Takes two steps up here but passed the eye test on debut.
#2 Hey Mike: Back in two weeks may have been too much too soon, but he really did hang badly late.
#4 Silver Mission: JV sticks here.
#3 Lady Stardust

Race 5:
#7 Off the Tracks is SCR...
#4 Quick Release: Ran huge last time given the rest of the speed collapsed. Looks fastest early again.
#6 Kareena: Looks talented and key races all around, but some of these are seasoned and is unproven rating, if need be.
#1 Blip n' Th Bye is SCR...
#5 One True Kiss

Race 6:
#1 Battle Midway: Glad this race isn't in any big sequence. Taking a shot with this one..had missed 19 days between last work and race in turf debut and ran into trouble on the turn. Next out wasn't that bad given the front two were there all the way. Closed well enough sprinting last out and picks up Geroux.
#9 Good Response: Maybe prefers it longer, but he also prefers it in NY and ran second over this course and distance as a 2yo.
#6 Mav
#4 Rock Eagle

Race 7:
#7 Adulator
#8 Dreamsdocometrue
#1 R Limo Joe
#3 Ehklaas

Race 8:
#6 Always Sunshine
#5 Catalina Red
#1 Holy Boss

Race 9:
#1 Sea Calisi: Top European form and couldn't have asked for a better NA debut.
#5 Photo Call: Castellano sticks and she is a G1 winner.
#7 Guapaza: Gets the positive weight swing this time.
#3 Trophee

Race 10:
Will try and get back to this later, but I won't sugar-coat it...it's an ALL race for me.

Race 11:
#2 Frat Brat: This is a terrible race to end the card, and I can't believe this one will be anywhere near 15-1 ML. Took money in his lone turf start, copped a big check early, and gets a massive rider upgrade. Oh, and the trainer is 50% this meet. I can't find anything else in here I like, but will use the 8 or AEs as well.
