Have ended up with 6/9 short priced favourites on top at Today’s Belmont card . Couldn’t separate them in terms of best bet / staking plan so I am having $5 on the 20 trebles combination. ($100) This means that 3 of the 6 have to win to get a return . Most bookies offer this product. A brief description of all 6 runners below .

Belmont r2 Wuhan Warrior ; Very fast horse who has drawn inside the equal favourite Rockin Rupert and after the claim carries 0.5 kg less. Rupert’s trials have been electric but to sit outside a speedster in Wuhan on debut and get over him will be a big effort.

Belmont r3 Acefire ; His form looks superior and Pike replaces an inexperienced 3kg claimer. Does have to handle the 6 day back up and you do have to take short odds to find out.

Belmont r4 Beauty In Me ; Was not in the picture on straightening on debut over 1000m before rattling home into 3rd. Hopefully the step to 1200m from a middle draw means she can settle a touch closer and Pike sticks. Cold Shizzle has been hammered into favouritism off the back of her strong 2yo form lines. 2yo form is never a given first run as a 3yo but the money is there to suggest she is working well.

Belmont r5 Astrape ; Another 3yo with strong 2yo form taking on the older horses who ran 2nd in a good 3yo race on resumption. Should get a great run just off the speed and hopefully with the help of the 3kg claim run down the likely leader Crypto Queen who has the strongest form of the older horses. The trainer’s whole team is firing on all cylinders.

Belmont r6 Go Forward ; Found this one on Cup day and boy wasn’t he impressive. Was over $4 last night and is now $3.20 and still attracting support . Most likely gets back again from the draw but if he can get any sort of tow in and shows the same turn of foot as last time he is better than them. Another tried horse going places for the Gangemi’s . War Warrior has ability and it’s D Day for Sniparoochy .

Belmont r9 Antique Jewel ; These moderate staying affairs are more about who’s Pike on than form and although this is a higher grade than last start’s easy kill it should get every possible from the draw and drops in weight. #PIKEINTHELAST
