Race 3. Locked in a dogfight for leading-trainer honors with Doug O’Neill as the Santa Anita meet winds to a close, it looks like Peter Miller is being pretty aggressive by spotting Pat the Bear (4) for the optional $40,000 claiming tag in this spot. Pat the Bear is a 3-year-old facing older and has been on an eight-week layoff. Still, it seems like his best effort will do here, even with the double bug Brayan Pena getting the mount.
The late pick four Saturday at Belmont is an appealing sequence with real potential for a good payoff.

I’m playing this pick four, and here are my thoughts on it.
DRF handicapper Michael Hammersly provides his best plays on Saturday's program at Santa Anita.
How will I play Belmont on Saturday? With extreme caution. Despite a full field in the feature, the Grade 1 Mother Goose Stakes for 3-year-old fillies, and a couple of other interesting races, I had tons of trouble coming up with strong opinions. Instead, I’ll attempt to make lemonade from lemons by keying the following horses in multiple-race wagers and playing them to win if they meet my personal value-line requirements.
