Beer: Belmont Park horses to watch for week of May 7, 2018

WONDERFUL LIGHT
Trainer: Michelle Nevin
Last race: May 5, 9th
Finish: 1st by 1 ¾
Beyer: 96
Lightly raced sprinter has run faster than this in the past, but this was a strong race off a short layoff as he came home gamely to close down a loose-on-the-lead rival while looking like stakes competition may be in his future.

SMALL BEAR
Trainer: Jeremiah Englehart
Last race: May 5, 10th
Finish: 9th by 5 ½
Beyer: 92
Finished last in the Grade 3 Fort Marcy making his first start of the year, but his trip was a difficult one and he was in too tough, anyway. Four-year-old gelding is underrated on both surfaces.
