Litfin: Belmont pick four for Saturday, Oct. 17
The late pick four with a $300,000-guaranteed pool catches our attention, with a favorable weather forecast that promises to keep the three grass races in the sequence intact.
Race 7
Using JAX HERITAGE (1), CHASINGTHEBLUES (2), ALL OVER ME (3), ODE TO THE HUNT (8) and HARBOR KING (9) in this wide-open New York-bred allowance.
A – 8, 9
B – 1, 2, 3
Race 8
S’MAVERLOUS (9) is in raging form after three straight blowout wins, while FURYOFTHENORSEMEN (8) cuts back to a sprint after being legged up in two turf routes and may be a price.
A – 9
B – 8
Race 9
Familiar rivals COFFEE CLIQUE (10) and LADY LARA (13) square off again in the Athenia, where the consistent European invader FAUFILER (12) gets Lasix and has a history of going well on firm ground.
A – 10
B – 12, 13
Race 10
LIGHT THE NIGHT (2) is headed the right way after an improved second try, while JAN’S RESERVE (4) may rebound with blinkers on. First-time starters PUBLISHANDITERATE (10) and WAR OF IDEAS (11) are in the mix as well.
A – 2, 11
B – 4, 10
