Default Belmont Race 5 on six six

Key race on Thursday is ending the pick 5 and staring the late pick 5. A lot of interesting hosses in here. Anyone any thoughts on the race. I had it narrowed to 2-6-9-10-12, but there’s plenty to think about in there.

How about #4 Blahnik wire to wire under Saez?

It's a tough race. Several could realistically win. A 30,000 Real Solution Chad/Klaravich?Worked fast for a Chad but I have no context of who she was working with or what the track was like that morning? Now a 300000 Real Solution for Klarman would make more sense. I thought Miss you Blues ran very well last out and while this is a potentially a MUCH tougher field I wouldn't want her to knock me out at 12/1. I thought Shug's filly is the one you want vs. Queen Medb race and should be a better price. While she can win I wouldn't use the TAP, 575k and they moved her to turf in her 2nd race, not exactly a ringing endorsement, but she will be in front, so there is that. Wonder if Rice will scratch? Private purchase and/or trainer change? I never toss her out second time even if it's on a trainer change. Tough, tough race impossible to be narrow IMO

I like the 1, 9, and 10.

Call me crazy but I don’t really like the 2 at all and lukewarm on the 6.

But definitely a tough race to handicap.

I don’t like those Bernardini guys on the turf. He looks like he has stamina problems too. Not for me.

Brown/Klaravich have a real shot at sweeping the early pick 4

One out of four ain't bad, especially with a filly who looks like that.

I could’ve sworn she was 6-1 going into the gate too. She took quite a hit late

The smart money knows you never go 0 for 4, and bet late accordingly. Meanwhile I couldn't pick my nose , even if I stood on a chair.
