Belmont is a Heavy 9 at time of writing ,. With plenty of more rain forecast tomorrow we will be lucky if the meeting even goes ahead. Being track side Saturday when it deteriorated from a drying 6 to a 10 in about 2 races , I noticed some of the swimmers we tipped didn’t even handle it , especially if they settled back in the field . With this in mind we will not be betting early and we will definitely be going small stakes.
Best Bet Belmont r1 Beneath the Covers ; Has run 2 seconds on Heavy to kick off campaign and beat home the favourite Mr Megsey at latest despite sitting deep the trip. Blinkers on , maps to find the front and has 4kg’s less to carry than the favourite .
Belmont r8 Cheerful Moment ; First run back from Victoria and while 1200m is way short of his best , gee whiz the heavy track Victorian form stacks up against these. Enticing the other wet tracker if 1200m proves too short for top pick.
