Belmont Park Race 2 - Race 2 - Mdn Special Weight
MINORITY INTEREST (10) 2yo by Charlatan racing as a debutant for trainer Chad C Brown. Samuel Marin rates highly steering. Watch the market moves. SIGNATURE ROLE (8) Philip Antonacci trained 2yo first starter by Oscar Performance. Watch for a sign in the market. HOLD'EM (6) 2yo by Scalding having first start for trainer William I Mott. Respect the betting. SUSPEND (7) Was agonizingly close last start at Saratoga. One at a decent price.

Jumped at $7.50 and came in 4th last time at Saratoga but having second career run. Has drawn the rails. Looks hopeful at best.

At $16.00 got going late when 4th last run at Saratoga and fitter for debut run. Todd A Pletcher stable are on fire recently and drawn nicely. Could not recommend.

Right up there last time at Saratoga and good career start. Displays good tactical speed. Very competitive this preparation. Prefer a return to something a lot easier.

Started at $12.00 and below par when 6th last time at Saratoga but having second race start. Likely to get back in the field. This will be a test.

Odds of $8.50 and moved ahead of some to finish 4th last run at Saratoga and was a debutant last start. Flavien Prat is highly regarded. Will need to find a few more lengths.

Chad C Brown trained 2yo by Charlatan having first race start. Jockey Samuel Marin is a bonus. Keep your eye on the market.
