BELMONT PARK Race #Seven

Premium Pick
(# 7) ALRIGHT NOW - Returned from a prolonged absence at Saratoga this summer, and was immediately saddled with a tough task off the shelf. He drew an outside post that day, but still managed to show improved speed from post 12. He held reasonably well all things considered, chasing a quicker/fitter and experienced rival into the stretch and finished fourth. He moves inside today, and returns to Belmont Park, the sight of his lone career win. His workout lines leading up to his comeback effort in August were not that inspiring, but he certainly has picked up the pace for Dutrow since, firing a bullet move at five furlongs on Sept. 20. He will, in all likelihood, revert to rating tactics today, which should mirror his winning effort in 2006.

(# 6) Estimator - Good second-place finish Sept. 2 holding on well after forcing a pressured quick pace. Responded well to the addition of blinkers. Should sit a good trip here.

(# 2) Mockingbird Lane - Gets tested for class today shipping in from Praire Meadows. The positive is that he is making his first start with New York breds.
