Belmont Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Optional Claiming
RHYTHM RIOT (1) Threw down a serious challenge last start at Delaware Park and drawn beautifully. Will be positive in the run early. Stable is in form and facing a rise in trip. Big chance. MALACHI MIRACLE (4) Kenneth G Mcpeek trained 2yo by Greatest Honour having first race start. Respect the betting. THE GABE DIGGER (6) Finished 3rd last time at Colonial Downs and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Has good tactical speed and will be nicely positioned. Racing over more ground. Goes very close. TUTTO A POSTO (2) Kept chasing when 5th last start at Saratoga and can find a nice position from the draw. Flavien Prat is a bonus. Always seems to find the line well. Keep in mind.

Competed in a tight contest last start at Delaware Park and can save some energy from the alley. Should muster plenty of early toe. Going over extra ground. Solid chance.

Was $6.50 and ran on into 4th last run at Saratoga and fitter for debut run. Have to respect the recent stable form. Displays very good finishing speed. Knockout chance.

At $43.00 folded up in the straight when 9th last time at this venue. Prefer in a much weaker race.

Looked good when 3rd last time at Colonial Downs and putting a tidy record together. Should be going forward early. Facing an increased distance. Genuine claims.

Started at $16.00 and lost ground in the run home when 6th last start at Monmouth Park but going up in trip. Large claim helps. Hard to see this being good enough.
