Belmont Park tips and results

Our price $2.86 · SP $2.60 · Chris Parnham

Her Belmont record is excellent with 5 placings from 6 starts at the distance. Chris Parnham retains the ride and the mare appears poised to break through at this level. The fast tempo should suit her stalking style.

Our price $5.00 · SP $4.80 · Clint Johnston-Porter

Go Go Grommet won well last start at this track over 1200m and drops back to 1000m. He has placed in 5 of 8 Belmont starts and Clint Johnston-Porter takes over. The top weight is a concern but he maps to settle handy. The fast tempo will help his chances of sustaining his run. Each-way value.

Our price $8.00 · SP $10.00 · Taj Dyson

Rocking In Vegas is an honest maiden who found the line well last start for a narrow second at Pinjarra. The wide gate is a challenge but with natural speed he should cross to a handy position.

Our price $10.00 · SP $20.00 · Clint Johnston-Porter

Miss Bickmore is a debutant from the powerful D & B Pearce yard, a stable that often readies one first-up. Clint Johnston-Porter is an astute booking and has a good record at Belmont.

Our price $5.00 · SP $8.00 · Holly Watson

Last Stylebender is on an upward trajectory, winning both starts since returning from a spell. He beat weaker opposition but did so with authority, showing a strong will to win. From barrier 7 he will need some luck to slot in, but if the speed duel up front collapses, his finishing kick could be decisive.

Our price $3.50 · SP $3.20 · Holly Nottle

Friar's Legacy is the most consistent runner in the field, with recent 2nds and 3rds in Class 1 and Class 3 company. He has a good record at Belmont and should lead or sit handy. The wide draw is a concern but he has the speed to overcome it.

Our price $12.00 · SP $17.00 · Laqdar Ramoly

The drop to barrier 1 is a significant positive and he can settle handier today.

Our price $3.50 · SP $2.80 · Lucy F Fiore

She maps for a prominent run from barrier 4 and has a sharp sprint. The class rise is the main query, but her raw speed and efficient action suggest she can measure up.

Our price $6.00 · SP $9.00 · William Pike

Eddietemple is a debutant with no public form, but the booking of star jockey William Pike and the use of blinkers indicate the stable expects a forward showing. Trainer Simon Miller has a good debut record and a 18% strike rate with Pike. The barrier is a slight negative, but early speed could compensate.

Our price $6.00 · SP $18.00 · Brad Parnham

Sunlit Fresco is a genuine on-pace runner who has won at this class and distance. She will likely lead or sit just off the pace. The very fast tempo could set it up for her if she can control the race, but she has been first up without success previously.

Our price $6.00 · SP $21.00 · Natika Riordan

Magnachine is a consistent mare who drops in class after a solid 5th in a Class 5 last start. With a strong Belmont record over 1200m, she maps to settle midfield and finish strongly.

Our price $4.00 · SP $12.00 · Cassey Martinan

Pony Up is a filly in career-best form, having won her last start over 1600m at Pinjarra and scoring a dominant Belmont Class3 victory two starts back. She has already proven she can handle 2000m+ with a win at Pinjarra and a close 4th in a BM66+ over 2200m. The step to 2100m suits, her jockey knows her well, and she maps to settle midfield from the wide gate.

Our price $6.00 · SP $3.90 · Lucy F Fiore

Moonwalk has been racing consistently around the metro provincials, running second in this grade last start. However, she has never raced beyond 1600m, and the step up to 2100m over a demanding Belmont circuit is a major unknown. From barrier 13 she will need luck to slot in and may get too far back.

Our price $5.00 · SP $12.00 · Chris Parnham

He won his last start at Ascot in BM66+ despite a wide draw, showcasing his ability to overcome adversity. Chris Parnham is a positive booking. The wide gate is a concern but his tactical speed may allow him to cross. His class rise is the main query.

Our price $3.00 · SP $4.00 · William Pike

She has proven class at Listed level and maps perfectly from barrier 2.

Our price $4.50 · SP $3.30 · Chris Parnham

Nicciana is a promising gelding with a high strike rate but faces a notable class rise to BM72+ company. His recent second at Belmont 1300m was encouraging, and he carries only 54kg.

Our price $15.00 · SP $51.00 · Cassey Martinan

His return was poor, but he is second-up, which historically suits him. From barrier 4 with a lightweight claim, he could lead or sit handy.

Our price $3.50 · SP $4.00 · William Pike

Fast Harry is a progressive gelding with a 50% win rate. His distance record is exceptional (3 wins from 4 at 1400m), and his second-up record is perfect (2 wins). Pike's 57% win rate on the horse is a huge positive. Last start 3rd in the same BM66+ class was solid, and he maps to settle just off the speed from barrier 8. The only query is Belmont Park experience, but his class and pattern suggest he's the one to beat.

Our price $4.00 · SP $6.00 · Chris Parnham

Hedawood is the clear form pick. He won this same class over track and distance last start, improving through his prep with a 2nd and 3rd prior. Although he draws wide (17), he has tactical speed to cross and has already overcome a middle barrier here. The tempo map suggests a very fast pace which should suit his on-pace style.

Our price $3.50 · SP $8.00 · Brad Parnham

Bohemian Diamond is a proven fresh horse with three wins from four first-up attempts. She is unbeaten at Belmont Park and draws perfectly in barrier 2. The drop from BM66+ and Listed races to Rest 1 Metro Win is a significant class advantage. The only concerns are the 104-day layoff and top weight, but her first-up record and track stats are compelling. She maps to settle just off the lead in a fast-run race and should be strong late.

Our price $8.00 · SP $20.00 · Natasha Faithfull

He has an outstanding record at this track and distance with 13 placings from 21 starts. The light weight of 54.5kg with Natasha Faithfull claiming effectively is a bonus. He maps well from barrier 7, likely settling midfield off a fast pace.
