Belmont July 29th, Tips and Previews
Best Bet - Belmont Race 7
6
Planet Cash $5.00
Planet Cash is flying this preparation.
The Dash For Cash gelding arguably should be undefeated this campaign, and he is chasing a hattrick of wins on Saturday.
His record at the track is superior, and he meets similar opposition.
The rising four-year-old has been well-backed since markets opened, and I suspect the money will continue until the barriers open.
The carpark draw is the primary concern.
Allez Allez looks dangerous jumping from an inside draw.
The Danehill Express gelding is racing in great spirit, and he previously won at the distance.
If the leaders spend their pennies during the race’s early stages, I expect him to capitalise in the shadows.
The class rise is his biggest challenge.
Next Best - Belmont Race 6

The Dominican $5.00
The Dominican doesn’t know how to run a bad race.
The Blackfriars gelding has filled the top four placings for the majority of his campaign, and he looks well placed in this company to be thereabouts again.
The step out to 2200m is ideal at this stage of his preparation, and he has raced well at Belmont previously.
From barrier thirteen, he will drift back and find his feet, and if he doesn’t get too far out of his ground during the race’s middle stages, he can threaten late.
His winning record is the primary concern.
Let’sdeal is ready to explode.
Both runs this campaign have caught the eye, and I expect him to peak third-up from a spell on Saturday.
The Dundeel gelding has an exceptional record at the distance, and he traditionally does his best racing at this stage of his preparation.
The allocated weight is his biggest challenge.
Best Roughie - Belmont Race 2

Great Again $10.00/$3.80
Great Again can bounce back after a disappointing first-up performance.
The veteran Viscount gelding is a second-up specialist, and his winning record at Belmont is outrageous.
The rising eleven-year-old shows no signs of slowing down, and his best form reads incredibly well for this event.
From the middle gate, he will spring to the pole position, and if he catches his rivals napping in transit, he will pinch a winning margin as they turn for home.
It’sarayday will start a short-priced favourite despite a last-start flop.
The Winning Rupert gelding was an impressive winner first-up, and it may pay dividends to forget his recent outing where nothing went right from the outset.
From barrier four, he will sit in the box seat, and if the gaps appear at the right time, I expect him to figure in the finish.
He always needs an element of luck with his racing pattern and style.
