Good luck!

I think Can't Refuse is the 4 not the 3.

Also races 7 & 10 are OFF THE TURF.

Steve - No Precious Passion? I think he's going to take them all the way at a nice price. The guy loves Monmouth and I think GC and Proudinsky are going to get way overbet

I like the 2 for value as well. Desormeaux's only mount of the day. Thinking about taking a shot with a 4x3x2x1x3 $0.50 P5.

I'm unconvinced on Passion today.. May be using this as a tightener for the U.N., and won't be that much better of a price than the logical/obvious 1 and 4. And Precious Passion is going to get pressure on the front end too..

I don't get leaving the 5th on the turf but taking two off in the Pick 4 sequence on a day where the courses will dry as it wears on. The guarantee shouldn't be a problem but I just don't understand the cherry-picking of which ones are off.

NT

As Nick indicates, 7th and 10th OFF THE TURF at Belmont...

An educated guess is that it's a function of which fields they think will be the least decimated by scratches. Both the 7th and 10th have several "dirt" horses in the respective fields, either in the body of the race or as MTOs and, as a result, are still likely to end up with fields of 8 to 10 horses. The other races would likely draw fewer horses if they took them off the turf.

Does it matter? NYRA turf SUCKS today compared to CD, MTH, and DEL, etc. It's a ****in Saturday, is this the best they can do? I can get claiming race just about anywhere.
And, this taking races off **** is just old news. Sooner or later NYRA will realize that they're not the only game in town anymore and many, like me, have moved on to other tracks. They taken what used to be arguably the best turf meet of the year (rivaling SAR) and turned into garbage. I suppose their landscaper must have the final say: SAVE the GRASS at all cost.

Where's El Crespo's 'good' race? Influenced by Leparoux being up, I looked real hard and couldn't find one.

And, while Strike a Deal almost never gets a good trip and sooner or later will get one, how in the world did you leave Buddy's Humor out after his butcher job ride last out? Now he's cutting back on a course he likes.

Don't Tell me NYRA cares the the FAT_Man Says
 

Did they do an about face and leave the 7th & 10th on the turf?

These changes added at 6/13/2009 11:03:00 AM Eastern Time BELMONT PARK SCRATCHES AND PROGRAM CHANGES FOR SATURDAY, 6/13/2009 TRACK CONDITIONS Weather: MOSTLY CLOUDY 72 Track: GOOD Turf: SOFT Turf Races: 3, 5, 7, 8, 10 Inner: Set at 27 Ft Widener: Set at 18 Ft P6 Carryover: NONE Takeout - 16.00 % Kind of makes it difficult to handicap and put together a ticket for the late pick four unless you wait until the last minute.

No.

THAT truly is a relief!
