Superfecta Sunday in New York

Back to beautiful Belmont where the grass in green. On this Superfecta Sunday we take a look at another long one on the grass.

Belmont Park Race 7 {The River Memories~1 1/2 mile~TURF~4 year-old Up~Fillies and Mares~Stakes}

A good group of eight will hit the grass in this stakes event. It comes up a little light on speed. A Euro quickening might be in store as the gals round the turn heading home. Speed numbers are relatively close which should make for a competitive race. Our task is to link together a winning 10 CENT Superfecta box ticket.

#1 Summersault (J. Velazquez / Hennig) appears the one to beat with the second highest last out speed number and three superb peaking workouts. This gal has gone this distance well running in the money twice in four tries. A daughter of Rock Hard Ten, she should be part of the quickening crew.

#5 Estrecada [ARG] (Prat / Diodoro) should also be one of the favorites with the highest (tie) last out speed number, a three race progression, and two hearty workouts. She is the only other one in the race to have gone this distance achieving a 66% in the money record from six starts at it. A daughter of Offlee Wild, she should be running close to the pace.

#6 Silver Step [FR] (M. Franco / Clement) will be making her third North American start. She has put together two decent last out performances and can be expected to improve. This gal already has four wins to her credit while running overseas. A daughter of Silver Frost [IRE], she should track and strike in the stretch. She is our Bronze Horseshoe selection.
$3 SHOW.

#2 Homeland Security (I. Ortiz / C. Brown) should contend with a couple of good last out speed numbers and four robust workouts. She can be expected to improve in her sixth career start. A daughter of Smart Strike, this gal is another that will should track the pace and quicken heading into the stretch.

10 CENT Superfecta Box ($2.40)

#1 Summersault  +  #5 Estrechada [ARG]  +  #6 Silver Step [FR]  +  #2 Homeland Security.
