Beer: Belmont horses to watch for week of June 1

Rubilinda

Trainer: Chad Brown

Last Race: May 27, 7^th

Finish: 1^st by 3 1/4

Beyer: 82

In the debut that everyone saw, 3-year-old Frankel filly raced very greenly while outrun early, before finding herself in the stretch and blowing out to an impressive score while apparently having plenty more to give. We’ll see.

Big Handsome

Trainer: Anthony Dutrow

Last Race: May 27, 8^th

Finish: 1^st by 5 1/4

Beyer: 98

Talented 3-year-old ran his turf record to a perfect 3 for 3 with another dominating win, this time over stakes rivals while sitting just off the pace for the first time.

Commend

Trainer: Bill Mott

Last Race: May 28, 6^th

Finish: 1^st by a nose

Beyer: 90

Stakes-quality turf sprinter was confidently rated behind an even pace before wheeling clear in the stretch and coming home strongly to close down a talented rival who had opened up a clear stretch lead on him. Can step up off this win.

Montclair

Trainer: Danny Gargan

Last Race: May 28, 7^th

Finish: 5^th by 1 3/4

Beyer: 89

Late-running turf horse wants to go long, and will have to find the right spot for his next start, but he was badly compromised here when staying in and getting buried in stretch traffic while trying to close into a moderate pace.
