Belmont picks for Sunday:
R1 #5 Mt. Majesty-Probable odds on favorite in here. Can’t really make a case for anything else, so I may watch this one.
R2 #1a E Ticket-Made an amazing run to win his last race on the turf. Quite possible that he won’t run that kind of race on the dirt, but I’m willing to take that chance if the price is right. And that price is 3/1 or better.
R3 #9 Queen’s Plaza-Lost all chance on the turn in debut. Barn does well with 2nd out runners. Price should be OK
R4 #6 Come Dance-Ran ok in comebacker first time out for this barn. Runner that finished behind him has returned to win. May get a clear lead in here.
R5 #6 Mike’s Greenfields-Won’t be 18-1 today, but I like him right back. ML fav will be overbet and I like him just as much. Gets a huge jock upgrade.
R6 #5 Bank Audit-Pace should be honest enough in here to set up his late run. Should take to the turf. Velazquez gets on.
R7 #9 Kentucky Pride-Might have a clear open lead today on his second try on the turf. I think that is the key for this runner, an uncontested lead.
R8 #7 Spite the Devil-Ran a great race last time, making up lengths in a fast last fraction while having traffic problems. May be set to handle these.
R9 #6 Hurricane Erica-Will probably be sent again and hopefully will hang on for dear life. 5/1 or better here.
