Belmont Park Picks & Free Handicapping on June 3
A Belmont Friday is coming your way. Next week's best week of racing at "Big Sandy" starts.
Belmont Park in Elmont, New York is ramping up its races. The Preakness Stakes is over and it's time to point to the Belmont Stake. Today, 9 races are drawn.
Alpine Queen #2 is the most likely winner in Race 3 at Belmont Park on June 3. The filly by Reload was last out at the Belmonst and looked like she had the "win" secured, but she was caught napping at wire.
Mississippi is a 7-year-old gelding that came from Oaklawn Park. He was trained by Ron Moquett. His speed figs have increased over the course of his past few races.
There will be rain on Thursday, so most of the turf events will have to be moved to the MT Handicap. The highlight race for 3-year-olds is the Dirt, 1 Mile, OC80kn1x, 3. Todd Pletcher’s Varatti #9 is a son of Into Mischief that ran at Keeneland in mid-April. Luis Saez is going to have the chance to right the ship.
