Fancy Red Is A Popular Pick In Belmont Classic

Belmont Oaks winner should hold her own against the boys in Listed race over 2,200m

- 

RACE 7 (1) KING OF LIGHT was super on debut when settling last in running, following highly touted youngster Aberdeen Flyer into the home straight and then sprinting on past him in the home straight. It was the win of a nice horse and it is expected that he will safely take care of rivals to remain undefeated.

(7) VATICAN STORM was in that same race and got into all sorts of bother in the home straight. Looked like he had something to offer if the gaps had appeared.

(4) RADIANT LIGHT trialled well behind Twisted Steel and then was closing the margin late on Mardusa on debut.

(10) MEDIA CLUB kept coming under pressure on debut.

RACE 9 (10) SUPERNATURAL again steps up in grade but stays on the minimum. She is coming off a last-start Heavy victory and given the amount of rain that the metro area copped on Wednesday night/Thursday morning it is likely to be at least in the soft range come Saturday. These progressive fillies on the minimum are always hard to hold out and while this race has more depth, expect she will take beating.

(3) COOL MEMORY sat outside Richanco first-up at 1,200m and returned a winner and second-up was squeezed out late in a 76+. This is a great race for him if he can roll to the top.

(5) SUNNY HONEY has had no luck throughout the entirety of his preparation. He deserves to win one, he has been tough in defeat.

(2) HELL I AM is building.
