Belmont Selections
SUNDAY, OCTOBER 15
SPOT PLAYS
BELMONT
Race 4
#7 Right On
Ran third in career debut against maiden special weights at Gulfstream, and has spent the last two outings challenging stakes horses in $100k and $200K events. Takes a ginormous class drop today down against maiden claimers for the first time with the move to New York, and catches an abnormally soft spot here against a terrible field. Big standout here.
Race 7
#2 New York Song
Plus play an exacta box w/#6 Portando
#2 New York Song was 3-for-3 since switching to the turf until losing last time in a tough-luck effort after a bad start. Gets an optimal spot to rebound here today back at Belmont where he’s won twice, and at 7F where he’s won twice.
Play in exacta box w/ #6 Portando, who always runs well in turf sprints for Linda Rice with three straight firsts or second in these kinds of spots. The lone blemish on the recent record is the toss-out two-turn attempt at Saratoga. He’s proven at today’s distance, however, and remains in top form at present.
