Greg’s Belmont Best Bets Posted on August 10, 2016August 11, 2016 | Posted by Greg Hooper Greg Hooper’s Preview RACE 1 Wide open staying race. PRINCESS JASMAN has been a bit of tease in her career to date. She’ll pinch one soon. SONNEN was bitterly disappointing at Pinjarra last week. If you can disregard that effort and go on his prior few efforts he goes very close. MIDNIGHT BANQUET can lead and give some cheek. DANCE MASTER is a horse on the rise. Numbers – 5 – 3 -2 – 1 Suggested Bet – Princess Jasman each-way RACE 2 SAMOVARE looked very sharp in her recent trial win. The 1200m should suit her racing pattern and she’ll take some holding out. GET OVER IT was impressive trial winner and the blinkers go on. DIAMON JOLSON led and was sharp in her trial win. ENCHANTED DREAM will get off the speed and attack the line. Numbers – 12 – 3 – 7 – 6 Suggested Bet – Samovare win RACE 3 CHARLESTOWN should get a cheap run on the speed and prove hard to run down. WITNESS IN COURT shook his maiden with an impressive fresh win at Northam. CHAMPAGNE HENNY is another who settles close to the speed and has claims. HE’S OUR FREDDY gets a soft run from gate 2. Numbers – 1 – 4 – 6 – 2 Suggested Bet – Charlestown win RACE 4 TUCKY’S LAD looks suited with the rise to 1400m and gets his chance for a much deserving win. SPECIAL JEWEL is the clear danger. TYCOON TARGET has claims if he can cross from a wide alley. SECRET DOUBT has strong place claims. Numbers – 7 – 8 – 4 – 6 Suggested Bet – Tucky’s Lad save Special Jewel RACE 5 HELLO PARIS looks a stand out in this very moderate 1300m handicap. She can camp behind the likely leader Foreseen and should be too strong. COME ON BOARD can improve off his fresh run in Saturday grade. CORUSCATION is hard to catch but he gets a soft run from a good draw. PEGATEGO can improve by being ridden more aggressively. Numbers – 10 – 13 – 5 – 1 Suggested Bet – Hello Paris and Come On Board RACE 6 ONADOWNTOWNTRAIN should lead and give a big sight. He hasn’t won for close to two years however he has predominantly raced in Saturday grade. LOCKROY makes his local debut. He was scratched from Saturday to be saved for this. GRECO is flying. BRACKETS has been tuned with two trials and usually races well fresh. Numbers – 1 -2 – 4 -5 Suggested Bet – Onadowntowntrain win RACE 7 CARD KNIGHT endured a torrid run first-up. Harvey goes on and he has drawn well. MASSACHUSSETTS has been a very frustrating horse but the blinkers go and she gets a very soft run from gate 1. JEBEL MUSA won his maiden well fresh and then was sound in Saturday grade. SCANDAVISTA should get it soft from a good draw and has claims. Numbers – 2 – 9 – 4 – 7 Suggested Bet – Card Knight win QUADDIE RACE 4 – 4, 6, 7, 8 RACE 5 – 10, 13 RACE 6 – 1, 2, 4, 5 RACE 7 – 1, 2, 4, 7, 9 Bet Now
