#8 Exulting (15-1)

R2 - Easy Goer 150k

#7 West Coast (5-2) - Looks to get a perfect stalking trip behind the pace. WON $.5.70
#6 Tale of Silence (15-1) - Nice local win and benefits from the amount of speed lined up.
#9 Outplay (3-1) - Wants the front and will have to shake off some company. 3RD
#1 Sonic Mule (10-1) - Battle tested and will be forwardly placed.

R3 - G2 Brooklyn Invitational

#7 War Story (6-1) - Like the fact he gets back to a dry track and he should be able to handle the distance. WON $10.00
#5 Tu Brutus (Chi) (2-1) - He'll be the target throughout and they better stay in tough with him. 3RD
#1 Governor Malibu (8-1) - It feels like he's better going a route and J Ortiz fits him well. 4TH
#3 Sunny Ridge (10-1) - Seems like the type of gallopers that will do well in this race. 2ND

R4 - G1 Acorn

#8 Salty (4-1) - This distance should hit her right between the eyes and gets a favorable draw. 2ND
#2 Florida Fabulous (15-1) - Expecting her to be in the 1st flight and tough as nails late under Paco.
#7 Sweet Loretta (5-2) - Seems like a one turn specialist, but gaps in races are a slight concern. 4TH
#5 Benner Island (6-1) - Loved her gutsy win in G2 8Belles, but this is a deeper group. 3RD

R5 - G1 Ogden Phipps

#5 Songbird (1-2) - She fires BIG every time and works indicate she's ready off the bench. WON $2.70
#6 Bar of Gold (12-1) - Expecting her to produce a strong effort 3rd race of the current cycle.
#7 Carina Mia (6-1) - Decent return and she should be tighter for this. 4TH
#1 Highway Star (10-1) - Definitely not camera shy, but this is a Grade 1. Nice value underneath. 3RD

PK5 - 3 5 7 / 1 6 7 9 / 5 7 / 1 2 3 5 7 8 / 5 = $72 for $.50 PAID $199.75 FOR $.50

PK4 - 1 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 / 5 7 / 1 2 3 5 7 8 / 5 = $42 for $.50
PAID $$57 FOR $.50

R6 - G3 Jaipur Invitational (Turf 6F)

#10 Stormy Liberal (5-1) - Miller ships with some serious intentions and this gelding is on a roll.
#3 Pure Sensation (3-1) - Expecting him to be much tighter for 2nd race of the year.4TH
#9 Conquest Enforcer (15-1) - Usually takes a ton of money and this distance and surface might be his best .
#4 Green Mask (7-2) - Solid win in most recent and always brings his best. 2ND

R7 - G2 Woody Stephens

#11 Petrov (8-1) - This seems to be a perfect fit with the lethal cut back angle at 7 panels. 4TH
#2 Classic Rock (10-1) - Been working a hole in the wind and you'll get a nice price.
#8 American Anthem (5-2) - Fired a big one in most recent at today's distance and could prove to much for this bunch. WON $5.90
#7 Wild Shot (4-1) - Super impressive on Derby Day, but this group is much better.

R8 - G1 Just A Game (Turf 8F)

#7 Antonoe (8-1) - Loved her U.S. debut after trouble early and there's enough pace for her to display her electric late kick. WON $8.20
#2 Roca Rojo (Ire) (9-5 ) - Versatile mare affords Geroux to have multiple options.
#1 Dickinson (5-2) - All I have to say is that she beat Lady Eli in most recent effort. 3RD
#5 Celestine (3-1) - She's come out firing in both starts this year, but she'll have to earn it versus this field.

R9 - G1 Metropolitan Handicap

#7 Economic Model (15-1) - The price will be too juicy to ignore and he runs the long sweeping turns to perfection.
#9 Mor Spirit (5-2) - Dangerous west coast speed and will be a handful to reel in late. WON $7.10
#11 Tommy Macho (10-1) - Proven at this track and distance which is a major plus. 3RD
#2 Rally Cry (5-1) - Should secure a nice stalking trip and we'll find out if he's good enough.

R10 - G1 Manhattan (Turf 10F)

#6 Potemkin (Ger) (8-1) - I got a feeling that Wohler's didn't bring him over to keep Red Cardinal company. Group 1 winner should be ready to rock n' roll.
#1 Beach Patrol (4-1) - We know how dangerous lone speed is on this turf course and they'll have to run him down. 4TH
#3 World Approval (3-1) - Made it look easy versus a easier group at Pimlico in most recent, but must be respected.
#7 Divisidero (4-1) - 9 panels seems like the optimum distance but brings some serious class into this race.

R11 - G1 Belmont Stakes

#2 Tapwrit (6-1) - Same recipe as Destin from a year ago and he fits with plenty of angles to get the job done. WON $12.60
#8 Senior Investment (12-1) - Has put it together lately and he'll relish the 12 furlongs.
#3 Gormley (8-1) - Should appreciate a dry track and has the pedigree to be succesful in this classic race. 4TH
#7 Irish War Cry (7-2) - Has the the good race bad race pattern going for him and it might just be that simple. 2ND
#6 Lookin At Lee (5-1) - Too short of a price to consider on top, but proven he can close in these types of races.

Belmont Gold Cup / Belmont Stakes Double - 10 11 12 / 2 3 8 = $9 X 6 = $54 PAID $51.00 FOR $2 = $153

PK6 - 3 10 / 2 7 8 10 11 / 1 2 7 / 7 9 / 6 / 2 = $120
