BELMONT
Race 6
#3 Reed Kan
Won both recent dirt races
wire-to-wire including an impressive score against better here at Belmont last
time out with a strong speed figure. Drops in class off the win with Irad Ortiz
back aboard for high-percentage trainer. Will be tough to beat with anything
close to a repeat of the last race.
Race 7
#4 Sower
Plus
play exacta box w/#2 Sexy Reasons
#4 Sower invades off a Grade 3 third-place finish in a key
race last time at Charlestown in the Charles Town Oaks and had also been competitive
in a Grade 3 race here at Belmont earlier this year in the Victory Ride when
third beaten less than a length. Fast workout since last raced indicates
continued fitness, and she will be very tough to beat down in this $100k stakes.
Play in exacta box with #2 Sexy Reasons, who is a foreign
invader from Uruguay who could be any kind, but shows up in the barn of Todd
Pletcher and sure looks like a good one based on a perfect 4-for-4 record in
2018 against South American stakes types.
