Usually, a battle-tested, lone-speed horse proves the darling of the betting public. But exceptions occasionally arise, usually when such a horse is matched against another type of runner whom the public adores even more: a hyped horse.
TimeformUS handicapper David Aragona provides his Highlight Horse for Thursday's card at Belmont Park.

With a very light stakes schedule for a summer Saturday, the Grade 3, $500,000 Ohio Derby at Thistledown is easily the richest race of the day. Santa Anita has a Grade 3, $100,000 stakes doubleheader with the Affirmed and Precisionist, but while the Precisionist is interesting, both races drew fields of only five. The only other graded stakes on Saturday is the Grade 3, $100,000 Chicago Handicap at Churchill Downs.
