POST-SCRATCHES

5th: Jockey Club Derby (G3), 3yo, 11f-T (Must Pay P5, P3, DD)

Legend of Time is coming out which leaves a quirky pace scenario. Not confident about any one player..

Best Value: #5 Deterministic 9-2
Next Best: #6 El Rezeen 7-2
Exotics Use: #3 Carson’s Run 5-2
Super Add: #2 Dashman 8-1

6th: Belmont Turf Sprint (G3), 3+, 6f-Outer (P4, P3, DD)

Shelving of Senza Parole makes this wide open. Note MDN’s Snowyte & Scottish Lassie exit MSW that produced Quickick who was a solid 2nd to Immersive in yesterday’s Alcibiades..

8th: Champagne (G1), 2yo, 1m (P5, G/S, P3, DD)

Chancer McPatrick more than backed up flashy debut rally in hair-raising Hopeful and there’s plenty of speed signed on here to help his off the pace effort. Pletcher on the attack with Tip Top Thomas who exits one of Spa’s top rated baby heats and Uncaged who performed with aplomb in wet debut. Vekoma Rides and Executive Order graduated without early leads and offer value. Dallas Stewart and Valene Farms have a unique Louisiana-bred G1 double opportunity with Smoken Wicked here and in the Futurity at KEE with Dapper Moon..

Most Likely: #10 Chancer McPatrick 6-5
Best Value: #6 Vekoma Rides 8-1
