Belmont Park Race 3 - Race 3 - Mdn Special Weight
CANDIDLY (4) 3yo by Medaglia D'oro having initial appearance for Chad C Brown. Jockey Manuel Franco is a strong choice aboard. Follow the money. HYPNOTICA (1) Back after spell. Did well when 2nd last time at Saratoga and has the ideal draw. Won't be far away during the run. Flavien Prat is a plus. Looks to be value. YURAK (2) First up and narrowly beaten first up last preparation at Santa Anita. Coming to a new trainer and showing consistent performance in races. Gets a favourable draw. Can go on with it. FRIENDSHIPANDLOVE (5) Saffie A Joseph Jr 3yo by Charlatan having first race start. Betting as a guide.

Resuming after a break. In the money when 2nd last time at Saratoga and has drawn the rails. Should race on the speed. Form has been improving over recent runs. Respect the betting.

First up and close to claiming the win first up last preparation at Santa Anita. First start for a new trainer and will try to take advantage of the draw. Definite contender.

Started $14.00 and gave away some ground when 5th last time at this track. Might be ridden for luck. Cannot recommend as a betting proposition.
