Races 6-9
6th-(1,3,6,7)
The 7 horse Shake You Down will probably be favored off 2 straight 118 Beyers. But both were on sloppy tracks at Aqu. Also, he's never run at Belmont. Peeping Tom ran a good race despite trouble last week at CD. The concern is the short rest and the lengthy van ride sometime earlier this week. Here's Zealous was originally entered in the same stake at CD Peeping Tom ran in but elected to stay in NY for this race. Say Florida Sandy can't be ignored; and he has won almost $500 K at Bel.
7th (3,5,8)
Erin's Storm may be overbet based on great dirt form and numbers. He's never ran on turf but he's by Storm Cat out of an Irish bred mare. Stroll is a Mott horse who's been 1st, 2nd and 3rd in three Belmont races and coming off a fast pace 2nd at Kee.
Lake Danzig is the price shot; he's a 3 YO making his turf debut by Miesque's Son.
8th (2)
Cyber Secret looks like a standout here. She could duel with Randaroo but she doesn't have to have the lead.
9th (2,5 and either 4 or 14)
If the 14 draws in, I'll use him and kick out the 4. Vest ran a good third on grass at GP and the winner of that race just won an Allowance race at Belmont the other day. The 5 should be a huge price. He was a $150K yearling, is by a son of Danzig and he did not take to the dirt track very well. Bond is a solid trainer and I'd expect 10-1 or 15-1. If the 14 doesn't draw in, I'll use the 4, who's been 2nd three times in 4 turf races.
