Belmont Picks - Friday June 12

Our handicapper Carl Nicholson is back with three value plays for Friday's card at Belmont.

Best Bet: MR. BLUFF (6/5 ML) - RACE 9

A nice little Stakes race to get our teeth into. MR.BLUFF is the obvious starting point, having been a winning machine for most of last season and into this one as well. The obliteration of the opposition last time out was most impressive, and it is easy to see he has a very strong chance once again. BANKIT ran in some pretty deep races last season and this looks way easier than some of those. He has been on the go for a while and is versatile, trip wise, so fitness and durability is assured. BUILT TO SUIT has not got as much experience as the majority of these, but there was plenty to like about the way he improved last season, and being with the Chad Brown barn who dominates Belmont Park he has to be given major respect. PAT ON THE BACK just loves this track and always seems to be involved at the business end when racing here.

MR.BLUFF is likely to be very popular given the job he did last time out, but BUILT TO SUIT has an appealing profile and if anything has more improvement to come .

OTHER PLAYS

RACE 1 – MRS FRANKEL (3/1 ML)

This looks to be a race to watch and remember with some choice bloodstock on show. All but one are newcomers and MRS FRANKEL catches my eye the most. She has been putting in some very good workouts in the mornings. Obviously, the Ward barn are represented with WINK & RIVER TIBER and the market should be monitored for confidence in them. But I will stick with MRS FRANKEL.

RACE 4 – ARITHMETIC (2/1 ML)

BLOOD MOON looks have been handed a penalty kick if this goes on the main track. He has an outstanding chance on the figures. ARITHMETIC is the obvious one to side with if this stays on the grass. He is unbeaten in two starts and holds a class edge over the opposition.
