Race 1: 18:05 Belmont At The Big A Race 1 - Maiden Special Weight

Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
(1) Policy Change	2	Manuel Franco	Todd Pletcher	Half-brother to Beside Herself, won twice between 1m and 1m 4f. Beaten behind Concord Green at 16-1 when 9th of 16 on his racecourse debut at Saratoga over 1m (good) last month. This drop in trip looks worth a go.
(2) Midnight Vengeance	2	Kendrick Carmouche	Todd Pletcher	Half-brother to Bad Bet, won three times at 6f. Market support on his debut could prove significant.
(3) Devil Of Ramadi	2	Christopher Elliott	Jennifer Paragallo	Half-brother to Hail To The King, won four times at 6f and 1m. Unplaced in both starts. Beaten behind Sandman at 50-1 when last of 7 on his latest outing at Saratoga over 7f last month. Another lesser role awaits.
(4) Lucas's Mischief	2	Jose Lezcano	William Mott	Half-brother to Caroline Street, won three times at 1m and 1m 2f including a Grade 3 race. Unplaced in both starts. Well beaten at 22-1 behind Dapper Moon when sixth of 9 on his latest outing at Saratoga over 7f last month. That defeat leaves him with something to prove.
(5) Nod To Tran	2	Romero Maragh	Gregory Diprima	Half-brother to Tapit Three Times, won twice at 1m. Finished behind Gate To Wire when fourth of 10 at 40-1 on his racecourse debut at Saratoga over 5f (good) last month. A likely player upped marginally in trip.
(6) Replevin	2	Flavien Prat	James Ryerson	Dam a lightly raced maiden. Placed once in two starts. Beaten by Jus Too Fly when second of 11 at 15-2 on his latest outing at Saratoga over 5f (good) last month. He is one of the more likely winners.
(7) My Man Magoo	2	Katie Davis	R Rodriguez	Half-brother to Hasn't Hit Me Yet, won three times between 5f and 6f. Experienced rivals may have his measure on debut.
(8) Tiz Dashing	2	John Velazquez	Barclay Tagg	Half-brother to Event Detail, won at 1m. It will be interesting to see what the market makes of him on this opening bid.
(9) Hit That Review	2	L Dettori	Brendan Walsh	Full brother to Beechwood Ella, won twice at 5f and 7f. Placed in both starts. Beaten 1 3/4l by Floodlites when second of 12 at 13-5fav on his latest outing at Kentucky Downs over 6f (good) last month. Another prominent showing looks assured.
(10) Social Hour	2	Tba Rider	Todd Pletcher	Half-brother to Dot, won at 5f. Placed once in two starts. Third of 9 behind Jonathan's Way beaten at 6-1 on his latest outing at Saratoga over 6f last month. Reserve.

NOD TO TRAN offered plenty to work with when fourth on debut at Saratoga last month and he may have enough improvement to fend off chief rivals Hit That Review and Replevin.

(1) Kubrick	4	Manuel Franco	Chad Brown	He has won three times from 7f to 1m on good ground. Finished 2 3/4l behind St Anthony when fifth of seven at 6-4fav on his latest outing at Monmouth Park over 1m (good) last month. Entitled to be thereabouts.

(4) Pioneering Spirit	5	Jose Lezcano	Linda Rice	Winner of six races from 1m to 1m 3f on firm and good ground and on the all-weather. Finished 3 1/2l behind Running Bee when fifth of seven at 15-2 on his latest outing at Saratoga over 1m (good) earlier this month. One to avoid.
(5) Battle Of Normandy	4	Joel Rosario	Claude McGaughey III	He has won three times from 1m to 1m 3f on good ground and on the all-weather. Won on his latest outing when 5-2fav at Saratoga over 1m 3f (good) in July, beating Truly Quality by a neck. Can land the hat-trick.
(6) Utah Beach	4	L Dettori	Ignacio Correas	He has won three times from 1m 2f to 1m 4f on good ground and on the all-weather. Finished 7l behind Sugoi when fifth of nine at 19-10 on his latest outing at Churchill Downs over 1m 4f (good) in May. Faces a stiff assignment.
(7) Phileas Fogg	4	Flavien Prat	Gustavo Rodriguez	Winner of five races from 1m to 1m 1f on firm and good ground and on the all-weather. A winner at 8-1 at Saratoga over 1m 1f (firm) on his latest outing last month, beating Capture The Flag by 3 1/2l. Reserve.
(8) Unbridled Bomber	5	Tba Rider	James Ryerson	Winner of five races from 1m to 1m 1f on good ground and on the all-weather. Finished 4l behind Big Blue Line when fifth of seven at 22-1 on his latest outing at Saratoga over 1m last month. Reserve.

BATTLE OF NORMANDY has been in excellent form of late and the hat-trick looks very much on the cards for the four-year-old. Andthewinneris and Kubrick also warrant consideration.

Race 3: 19:03 Belmont At The Big A Race 3 - Claiming

(1) Two For Charging	5	Flavien Prat	Jorge Abreu	Successful at 6f and 7f. Well beaten at 9-1 behind Reserve Currency when last of 10 on his latest outing at Saratoga over 1m in July. Needs to bounce back.
(2) Watasha	5	Luis Rivera Jr	Keri Brion	Successful at 6f and 7f. Beaten 2 1/4l by Doctor Nash when second of five at 11-10fav on his latest outing at Churchill Downs over 1m in November last year. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Joe Sharp. Do not dismiss.
(3) Arrebato	4	Christian Maldonado	Orlando Noda	Successful twice at 1m. Finished 12l behind Disappearance when sixth of seven at 13-5 on his latest outing at Aqueduct over 1m in April. Enough to prove.
(4) Heard On Thestreet	3	Katie Davis	Wayne Potts	Successful at 6f and 7f. Won on his latest outing when 13-8fav at Saratoga over 7f earlier this month, beating Stormquist by a neck. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Linda Rice. Can go in again.
(5) Mr. Swagger	4	Omar Moreno Hernandez	Gary Sciacca	Successful at 6f and 1m. Finished 10l behind Prairie Hawk when last of six at 10-1 on his latest outing at Monmouth Park over 1m last month. Difficult to recommend.
(6) Badlands Ruler	3	Eric Cancel	Naipaul Chatterpaul	Successful twice at 6f. Finished 8l behind Super Chief when sixth of 12 at 16-1 on his latest outing at Saratoga over 7f (good) last month. Unlikely to figure.
(7) Debate	5	Kendrick Carmouche	Michelle Giangiulio	Successful at 6f and 7f. Finished behind Lord Flintshire when sixth of 12 at 10-1 on his latest outing at Saratoga over 1m 3f (good) last month. More is required.
(8) Parkerness	4	Ruben Silvera	Jamie Ness	Successful twice at 6f. Beaten a short head by Goodbye Note when second of six at 33-10 on his latest outing at Timonium over 6f last month. Holds every chance.

A determined winner over this distance last time out, HEARD ON THESTREET can follow up for a third career success. That may be at the main expense of Parkerness and Watasha.

Race 4: 19:33 Belmont At The Big A Race 4 - Allowance Optional Claiming

(1) Olga Isabel	5	Manuel Franco	B Cox	Winner of six races from 6f to 1m. Finished 10l behind Unsung Melody when last of six at 9-10fav on her latest outing at Prairie Meadows over 6f in July. Tough ask.
(2) Just Katherine	4	Flavien Prat	Jose Jimenez	She has won three times from 7f to 1m 1f. Third of eight behind Free Like A Girl beaten 4l at 5-1 on her latest outing at Charles Town over 7f last month. Improvement is required.
(3) St. Benedicts Prep	4	Jose Lezcano	Linda Rice	Winner of five races from 6f to 7f. A winner at 2-1 at Saratoga over 7f on her latest outing earlier this month, beating Mighty Madison by a head. A player.
(4) Braganza	5	Joel Rosario	Richard Dutrow, Jr	She has won four times at 7f. Beaten 2 3/4l by Taxed when second of six at 9-2 on her latest outing at Churchill Downs over 1m in May. Having her first run for a new stable today, previously with Eddie Kenneally. The one to be with.
(5) Dream Concert	4	Jairo Rendon	Kathleen O'Connell	She has won four times at 6f. Third of seven behind Beth's Dream beaten 9l at 15-2 on her latest outing at Gulfstream over 1m in April. The percentage call is to oppose.
(6) My Kentucky Girl	5	Junior Alvarado	William Mott	She has won three times from 6f to 7f. A winner at 14-1 at Saratoga over 7f on her latest outing in July, beating Mighty Madison by a neck. A leading contender.
(7) Everyoneloveslinda	5	Eric Cancel	Linda Rice	Winner of seven races at 6f. Beaten 2l by Unsung Melody when second of five at 18-5 on her latest outing at Saratoga over 5f last month. Others make more appeal.

Runner-up on her last two starts, BRAGANZA deserves a change in luck and she can get that on this occasion. My Kentucky Girl and St. Benedicts Prep look to be her main dangers.
