Belmont At The Big A Race 5 - Race 5 - Mdn Claiming
VITALIZE (3) Looked outclassed when 9th last run at the track. Overlooking the last run. Suitably placed in this race. ROYAL ASCENDSHIN (6) Ran on when 2nd beaten by 1 1/4L last run here and was on debut last time. Should muster plenty of early toe. Can take this out. DEACON BLUES (2) Didn't threaten when 7th last start around here. Likely to bounce back and will try to take advantage of the barrier. Up to these. NONNO JOE (5) Ran 6th last start at this venue. Has the talent to rebound quickly. Should jump out and bowl along. Capable of getting into the money.

Jumped at $14.00 and came in 4th last start around here but can save some energy from the gate. One for the exotics players.

Odds of $14.00 and tailed off to finish 7th last start at this venue. Likely to bounce back and can find a nice position from the draw. Definitely worth considering.
