Fast and firm at Belmont with a very bad first 5 races followed by some very good betting races so play accordingly.

In race 6, Strolldownbroadway (#2) should be up close to a very slow pace and take over when ready in this inner turf sprint — I’m keying in all doubles and pick 3’s and playing an exacta box with Pegasus Ena (#8).

In race 8, Flowersonyourback (#3) loves the grass and can benefit from a decent pace and run down the leaders in this competitive race — I’m keying in all doubles and pick 3’s and playing an exacta box with Midnight Billy (#5) and Fenway Faithful (#7).  Here’s the entire card and good luck!

Race 1: 2B and 5

Race 2: 4

Race 3: 4 and 3

Race 4: 3 and 2

Race 5: 5 and 4

Race 6: 2 (Best Bet) and 8

Race 7: 7 and 1

Race 8: 3 (Best Bet) with 5 and 7
