Why don’t they just call it NYRA at Aqueduct? 🤔
First post goes off at 1:00 EST.
Belmont Race 2 • Lonesome Glory Handicap (Grade 1) • 4YO+ • 1:32 EST A Grade 1 STEEPLECHASE for me to pick?! Yes please! I’m going to pick against Keri Brion and instead put my $2 win bet on 6 Song for Someone, a gelding whose trainer/jockey combo hits at 20%.
Picks: 6-1-5-3

Belmont Race 7 • Allowance NW1 • Fillies & Mares 3YO+ • 4:07 EST This is a wide-open field that is tough to get a read on. I’m putting 9 Icy Stare Down on top from trainer Brad Cox’s barn. She is 4-1-0-2 on dirt, having gone off the post time favorite in each career race. First start on the grass today. She gets some class relief here and a jockey switch to Joel Rosario. Should get an honest price to boot.
Picks: 9-10-8-6
