The miracle has happened and the skies have improved enough to allow racing.
Saturday has a 9 Graded Stakes card with the Belmont Stakes Gr1, third leg of the triple crown but no winner of that title this year. However we do get to see Forte, who we thought was a good thing for the Kentucky Derby until his unfortunate forced scratching with a minor stone bruise, back on the track and how could you not go for a horse that has already won four Gr 1s? Also he's on 5/2 which is quite generous.
His main rival is expected to be Tapit Trice who was disappointing in the Kentucky Derby and is on 3/1 and Angel Empire, the Arkansas Derby Winner and third In the Kentucky Derby on 7/2.
Our roughie here is Arcangelo on 10/1. He's a horse that is on the up and is trained by Florida based trainer Jena Antonucci with Javier Castellano taking the ride.
