TimeformUS Belmont Horses in Focus for Wednesday, June 13, 2018
Race 3
Double Cast (#6)
Ran an improved race in her four-year-old debut despite traveling a distance that is short of her best.
Took a long time to break out of maiden ranks, but that was largely due to some badly timed rides and poor luck.
The low-percentage barn will ensure that she is a square price.
3-1 on ML
Race 5
Odin’s Steed (#6)
Was completely eliminated at the start last time, yet ran on well to be third.
He is a large, rangy colt who seems like the type that will improve with racing.
Gets a positive rider switch to Joel Rosario, who has had success when riding for this barn (100 Trainer Rating).
10-1 on ML
Race 7
Strawberry Tequila (#9)
Something clearly went wrong last time, as she was traveling well approaching the quarter pole before abruptly stopping.
Had previously run speed figures that would make her very competitive with this field.
The Pace Projector is predicting that she will get a fast pace to close into.
12-1 on ML
