As anticipated, it was a very fun day of quality racing at Belmont, with the results making the day profitable atop the scintillating action. After a whiff in the turf route maiden opener, I ran through 4 "on top" winners in a row ($15.60; $8.30; $9.50; $6.90), though bold type LOST WITHOUT YOU was subsequently taken down by the stewards.
Among the cashings yesterday was the Late P4 ($367.00), the R5-7 P3 ($177.75) and sassy Defrereoftheheart keyed exacta ($96.00: $2) and tri ($156.00: $1). I'll assume you did well..
Carryover of $44k today thanks to the $90.00 Contessa winner of Wednesday's 4th.. If you haven't looked at it, BLOOD-HORSE.COM's
Maiden Watch Blog has done great work, and had Into My Soul as an ON TOP selection.
