Belmont Race 5 - Swan Draught - Strickland Stakes (G3)

The feature of the day now where WESTERN EMPIRE (1) looks the one to beat. He was beaten in this race last year, but that was on a heavy deck and he's trending in good fashion this campaign. Should get every chance under Pike and is the class runner of this field. HOBA WEST (10) sat handy and proved tough to run past in the Hyperion, with the rise to 2000m right up his alley. Suspect he'll roll across, set the tempo and if WESTERN EMPIRE's suspect at the trip, he'll be there to strike. DIAMOND SCENE (3) was just fair in the Hyperion but wasn't suited with how that race was run. This trip should suit him better now and he's won 2/4 third-up. Expecting an improved performance this time around. GINGER BAKER (5) finished off strongly last time out and gets plenty in his favour today. Can feature in the finish. IN GOOD ORDER (7) can turn in an improved performance today.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming favourite; won by a long-neck at this track G3 Belmont Sprint May 16 over 1400m on a rain affected track defeating Rope Them In with 59kg at $2.25. Second run from a spell favourite; raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a nose at this track G3 Hyperion May 30 over 1600m on a soft track defeating Hoba West carrying 59kg at $2. The distance is the query, but he's clearly the class horse of this race.
