Belmont Park Race 8 - Dwyer S. Stakes
TED NOFFEY (6) Racing fresh today after a break of 53 weeks. Finished on top by 1L last run at Del Mar and putting together an impressive record. Displays good tactical speed. Major chance. STIMULATE (3) Was quite a handful for the competition when 3rd last start at Churchill Downs and good career start. Won't be far away during the run. Can win this. WHITE SMOKE RISING (4) Good performance to run into 3rd beaten by 4 3/4L last run here and putting a tidy record together. Tracking very well this campaign but facing stiffer opposition. Well placed and has solid claims. SEA STRIKE (9) First up after 10 weeks and rounded them up when winning first up last preparation at Aqueduct. Jockey Flavien Prat is an asset but up against stronger competition. Will be there at the finish.

Dictated the tempo to win by a margin of 1 1/2L last start at Keeneland and honest performer putting a tidy record together. Won last 2 in a row. Modest contender.

Felt the pinch late when 3rd last start at Churchill Downs and showing consistent performance in races. Has early speed and positions nicely. Matched against tougher rivals. Good chance and definitely has claims.

Was $18.00 and ran past a few when 5th last run Parx At Philadelphia but up against tougher competition. Good to see Manuel Franco is jumping on. Some hope in this event.

First up after 10 weeks and finished well when winning first up last preparation at Aqueduct. Flavien Prat is a strong choice aboard but back in trip. Facing formidable competition. Expect a forward showing.

Started at $31.00 and peaked on the run when 4th last run Parx At Philadelphia and back to an increased distance. Should muster plenty of early speed. Rising in class. Prefer in something a lot easier.
