Belmont - Race 3
#10 Draw Two (12/1 ml)
2yo firster for Michelle Nihei comes into this race straight out of a heads-up turf drill with 3yo barnmate Regalo Mia, who was last seen running second by a nose in the Grade 2 Sands Point Stakes. Gotta like that. Also, her two previous drills came heads-up with another 3yo barnmate named Donnatale, who won her debut by 3 lengths down @ Gulfstream late last year at odds of 8/1. Unfortunately, that one tanked in a two-turn allowance race next time out, but that was back in February and she hasn't run since, indicating perhaps that she might've been injured that day (also possible she just didn't like two turns). Also worth mentioning, Draw Two's mom (Belle Watling) was Horse of the Year in Chile a few years back, so she certainly has a right to be a good one. Main drawback here is the fact that she's drawn on the extreme outside in a turf-sprint that features a pretty tight turn, so there's a real possibility she gets hung wide here. There's also a 50% chance if rain today, according to the weather report, so who knows how that might affect things. Think the positives far outweigh the negatives though, at this kind of price. Looks live.
HRT record:
87 for 322 (27%)
$738.00 mutuels ($8.48 avg)

Thank you buddy. I didn't play it, but gave it to a couple old-timers who wanted my best play. You really need to find a way to get me your plays without fucking PAYPAL.
