The 140th running of the Belmont Stakes
with Casino Drive scratched
I guess I'll be rooting for history....
BIG BROWN (#1)
This unbeaten, untied upon equine monster is looking to become the 12th Triple Crown winner in history; totally brilliant in both the Kentucky Derby & Preakness Stakes, he has overcome foot issues the last three weeks since then; gets the call now the
Casino Drive is out.
READY’S ECHO (#9)
Not often that you see this combination with a morning line odds of 30-1; void of early speed, this “Silky Sullivan” like runner comes far off the pace & will be flying late in the stretch, the “value play” in this race.
TALE OF EKATI (#7)
No factor 4th in the Kentucky Derby, this Barclay Tagg trainee is two for two over the Belmont strip; breeding wise, he doesn’t look like he wants the distance on paper; But figures in the exotics with his “back” class.
DENIS OF CORK (#4)
Rallied from dead last in the Kentucky to be a no factor 3rd with a up the rail trip; gets jockey switch today from Calvin Borel to Robbie Albarado & the five week break between races; could set a good trip stalking behind the leaders.
