Superb Belmont Thursday

Another horse racing weekend begins and we look again to Belmont Park for a superb race.

Belmont Park Race 8 {6 furlongs~3 year old Up~Fillies/Mares~NY~Optional Claiming}
An extremely closely matched group of eleven will make the start in this sprint.  Each have a solid record at this six furlong distance.  This should be a good wagering exercise.

#11 Lady On the Run (Solis / Morrison) Could bring it home with the third highest (tie) last out speed number at a mile route, the highest speed number at the distance, and two robust, peaking workouts.  She will come closing well.
$1 WIN / SHOW.

#4 Page By Page (Lezcano / Hennig) will challenge with the second highest last out speed number, a four race progression, and one stout workout.  She will be forwardly placed seeking to fight off any challenges.
$1 PLACE / SHOW.

#3 Bailzee (C. Lopez / Kelly) will also be a contender sharing the third highest last out speed number and three hearty workouts.  She will close swiftly in the stretch.
$2 SHOW.

Other Wagering Interests

#10 She's Got Rules (Luzzi / Jerkens) will also contend with the fourth highest last out speed number, a four race progression, and three superior, peaking workouts. 
She should track the place closely waiting to stirke in the lane.

#9 Myrtle's Gray (Maragh / Duggen) looks to make hay with the highest last out speed number, a three race progression, and two sprinty, peaking workouts.  She should press the pace.

10 CENT Superfecta

Belmont Turf on Sunday

The close of our horse racing weekend features a Turf mile at Belmont Park, making it a Belmont Park horse racing weekend.  A very nice one indeed.

Belmont Park Race 9 {Noble Damsel~G3~1 mile~Turf~3 year old Up~fillies/mares~Stakes}
A solid field of seven will go to the gate for this graded stakes grass run.  All appear to be capable of pulling off the victory.  It could be quite a race.

#2 Aviate [GB] (Desormeaux / Mott) appears to be well wired for the win with the second highest last out speed number at a longer route and two tenacious, peaking workouts.  She could come flying through the stretch.
$1 WIN / SHOW.

#5 Unbridled Humor (Dominguez / Motion) will challenge with the highest last out speed number at a longer route and two strong workouts.  She could find herself up on the lead with the rest of the field gunning for her.  Two victories at this distance says she will attempt to hold them off.
$1 PLACE / SHOW.

#3 Thai Haku [IRE] (Lezcano / Delzangles) has raced in Britain, France and UAE this year with some success.  She could do very well in her first North American start.  She likes this distance and is 50% in the money over her twelve race career.  She could surprise.
