Belmont At The Big A Race 5 - Race 5 - Maiden Special Weight
WHITE SMOKE RISING (7) sets the bar off a debut 2nd at Aqueduct over 1207m, beaten 0.3L after tracking the speed, and maps to be prominent again up slightly in trip. PARTY ANIMAL (3) brings recent turf placings, including 3rd at Gulfstream over 1509m before a 5th at Aqueduct over 1609m, and can be strong late back to this distance. ONEPAC (1) was 3rd here at Aqueduct over 1308m last start and draws the rail to get the right run. First-starters CITE YOUR SOURCES (2), DISPARATE IMPACT (4) and IF EVER (6) add depth.
