Day 1
Best Bet: Race 1- #7 Giocare
Noda barn was hot for a good portion of the Belmont meet. This horse ran well here last year and also ran well for Noda in his lone start in the barn late last year. No less than 4 horses need the lead here and I think this is the best closer. Get the meet off to a good start

Longshot: Race 4 #6 Snow's Island
This one had all kinds of trouble in multiple spots last time and a less than enthusiastic ride from Kendrick late against a repeat winner who is bound for stakes. It's worth watching the replay. 3rd off the break, and might get lost in the wagering.

Good luck!

Weird race by Giocare. Looked done in the stretch and then finished best of all to get third and galloped out in front. Snows Island got a fantastic ride by Kendrick seizing control at the top of the lane to win and pay $19.40 and $8.90, once again showing how valuable watching replays is.
