SPOT PLAYS
BELMONT
Race 4
#6 Malarkey
Got the
maiden win last time out and got claimed by high-percentage trainer Linda Rice,
who is hot to begin the Belmont meet. Lands at the proper nw2l level here today
and Rice wins 30% off the claim. A repeat of that last effort beats these and
extends this horse’s winning streak to two in a row.
Race 6
#7 Steelersfanforlife
Plus
play exacta box w/#2 Mango M
#7 Steelersfanforlife got rained off the turf last time out
and couldn’t make a dent on the dirt at 7F at Saratoga, but it will be a
totally different story here when this horse gets back on the turf in a route
race based on back-to-back good turf route efforts here at Belmont in June and
July. Looms a live giant overlay at 8-1 odds on the morning line.
Play
in exacta box with #2 Mango M,
who won when stretched out to a turf route for the first time two races ago.
Lost in repeat bid last time out at Saratoga in a race where he had two major
excuses, first with a terrible break from the gate that day, and then when
caught in traffic en route to a seventh-place finish but beaten only three
lengths. Just needs a clean trip to hit the exacta boxes.
