History Beckons on SAT at Belmont with an outstanding card assembled. Here's a look at the two Graded Stakes on Friday.
Belmont Park R9 - G2 Brooklyn Handicap #1 Evening Attire - Old man (10 yr old) has earned over $2.7 million, but has struggled at BEL, just 1 for 18. #2 Delosvientos - Has won last 4 on dirt going over a mile including a sharp front running victory on May 15th on this strip. Will be a tough customer again on the front end in a race that lacks pace. #3 Angliana - Expecting a better effort after having trouble at the break, catching a sloppy track, and carrying 8 extra pounds in latest. #4 Sightseeing - Should enjoy the marathon trip and both his career wins have been at Big Sandy. #5 Imawildandcrazyguy - Struggled to beat a sprinter in a route race at CRC and simply has not shown a liking outside of Calder. Minor award at best. #6 Nite Light - Keeps on improving with victories in 4 of last 5 and Pletcher has had success spacing his last couple of starts. #7 Awfully Smart - Came up with a case of fleas, so they had to scratch him. Selections #2 Delosvientos #6 Nite Light #4 Sightseeing #3 Angliana DD - 2 / 2 Ex Bx - 2 / 3 4 6 R10 - G3 Hill Prince (Turf) #1 Titan of Industry - Must step up his game at his preferred distance and would consider at a price underneath. #2 Hatta Fort (GB) - Solid race at KEE should set him up well for this as he tries his longest distance in his career. Top connections will have him ready. #3 Moral Compass - Won on this turf course last month and was within a length in the G3 Palm Beach at GP. Definitely in the mix. #4 Spark Candle - Regally bred stablemate of Casino Drive actually cuts back to shortest distance in career. Made his debut at 1 1/8 miles in Japan. Japanese connections looking for big weekend. #5 Writingonthewall - Empire bred taking a shot with trainer that has plenty of success with quick turnarounds. #6 Dynhocracy - Florida invader is best on the lawn as Kaplan brings a four pack to the Big Apple this weekend. #7 Prussian - Mott runner disappointed as the favorite in last two, but could be left alone on the front end. #8 Gio Ponti - Showed talent early, but has been off since the BC Juvy Turf. Clement always dangerous off the bench and the string of works on the BEL turf look decent. Selections #2 Hatta Fort (GB) #8 Gio Ponti #7 Prussian #3 Moral Compass Tri Key - 2 / 3 7 8 Good Racing Luck

Gus,
At the risk of showing how completely ignorant I am is your wager of Ex Box 2 / 3,4,6 the same as two exacta part wheels consisting of the 2 with the 3,4,6 and also the 3,4,6 with the 2? So basically the 2 has to either win or run second in order for you to cash?
