TimeformUS Belmont Horses in Focus for Friday, June 2, 2017

Race 5:

Theaterintheround (#2)

Is a half-sister to turf stakes winner Gallery.

Does not meet a particularly strong field for her debut.

DRF Formulator Fact: Chad Brown is 8 for 18 (44 percent) with $5.18 return on investment with New York-breds making their debuts in turf routes in New York over the past five years.

3-1 on ML

Race 6:

Camp Courage (#4)

Was off slowly and squeezed back at the start in his lone U.S. start.

Should appreciate the turn-back to sprint distances.

Ran well against some tough company as a 2-year-old, including European star Almanzor.

12-1 on ML

Race 8:

Glory to Kitten (#1)

Ran well enough to beat this field in her last start when nearly running down the stakes-quality Taralena.

Her rail post position gives her an edge at this distance.

Possesses tactical speed, which should benefit her in a race lacking any confirmed front-runners.
