BELMONT STAKES Day 2021

 As some degree of normalcy returns to the sports world we look in on a fantastic card for Belmont Stakes Day.

Belmont Park Race 11 {Belmont Stakes~G1~1 1/2 mile~3 year-old~Graded Stakes}

A field of eight will step up to the gate in one of the best races on the the horse racing calendar.

Past Performances used:  DRF Classic.

There are a few in here that will make their way to the front and maintain a serious, but controlled pace. Speed numbers are very close among the top contenders.  Workouts have been super strong leading up to this last leg of the Triple Crown. It should be a fantastic race.

#7 Rock Your World (Rosario / Sadler) had a very rough start in KD 147 and should fare better in this modest sixed field. He has put in three exceptional workouts, including a bullet, in preparation for his run. This guy could control the pace from start to finish. A son of Candy Ride [ARG], he has a 75% win rate from four career starts.

$1 WIN  /  $2 PLACE  /  $3 SHOW.

#2 Essential Quality (L. Saez / B. Cox) will challenge with the highest (3-way tie) last out speed number and three powerful workouts that include a bullet. He should race close to the pace ready to get first jump on the leader. This son of Tapit, has an 83% win record from six career starts.

$1 PLACE  /  $2 SHOW.

#3 Rombauer (J. Velazquez / McCarthy) looks to extend his win streak after his victory in the Preakness last out. That effort helped him share the highest last out speed number among this group. Look for him to track and close explosively in the stretch. A son of Twirling Candy, he is 72% in the money from seven career starts.

$2 SHOW.

#6 Known Agenda (J. Ortiz / Pletcher) is bred for the classic distance and will contend. He holds the second highest last out speed number and three stout workouts. He is another tracker--closer in this field. This guy is one of two that have hit the board at Belmont. A son of Curlin, he is 72% in the money from seven career starts.

$1 SHOW.
