BELMONT PARK Race #2

Premium Pick

Top pick: #2 (LONGWOOD LANE) - Bet down to "luke warm" favoritism in his debut, he tracked early, bid while 3-4 wide, and came up a neck short in an excellent debut at Saratoga at this distance Aug. 6. Trainer Todd Pletcher has worked him four times since and this son of "Langfuhr" will be sold later this year as part of a large dispersal of the estate of the late Edward P. Evans. A maiden win would enhance his value. The top pick.

2nd pick: #4 (Liquidity Trap) - Grey colt by "El Prado" raced a bit erratically in his debut at Saratoga when he finished evenly beaten just under 6 lengths. Trainer Chad Brown adds blinkers and this $190,000 yearling purchase will contend today.

3rd pick: #5 (Ur) - He rallied last out at Saratoga to miss by a neck in his third lifetime start and this ridgling by "Giant's Causeway" has had some sort of problem in each outing. Stretch threat with a "clean" trip.
