![]() Even with the extra days to cap, Wednesday's carryover skien at Belmont proved impossible. Frankel's front-running Ground Frost ($14.40) in the opener started the parade of double digit winners which saw tough-to-like Vladimira ($33.40) win the fifth from Rodrigo Ubilio. I happened to love Quasicobra ($27.00) in the 6th, scoring on a win bet, but many undoubtedly left the back-in-form Romans' runner off their sextet ducat. Gold Record ($23.60), Stan Hough's first of two in the late P4, sealed the carryover deal in the 7th. (Of course the tone for the day was set from the get-go when Cleveland Johnson (!) won the opener..)
Thursday card looks safe from rain that is approaching New York, (and which may put a damper on the JCGC card which draws today), but the sequence is just as treacherous as yesterday's... BELMONT PARK POST-SCRATCHES 4th: MSW, 2yo-F, 7f-T (P6, P3, DD, Super) Approaching this with experienced starters as the main plays and 'interesting firster' considerations below..
