Hollywood - Race 9
#6 Shared Belief (7/2 ml)
Good-looking Hollendorfer trainee has shown speed and versatility in his first two starts, along with a blistering final furlong of 11.3 (while racing 7 furlongs, btw) when he opened up an additional 4 lengths over the stakes winner Kobe's Back (also entered here) through the lane. Based on that (and coupled with the fact that he was capable of sitting comfortably off route-type fractions before unleashing his big late burst), i have to think that he'll find today's stretchout to two turns well within his range. We also know that he likes the surface, contrasted with the fact that today's likely second choice (Tap it Rich) has yet to run here. Has continued to train sharply since his big win last time out, and of course Hollendorfer does just fine on the stretchout to a route, hitting 24% with that type over the last couple of years (also applicable to Hear the Ghost, btw). Could be a big day for King Jerry.
HRT record:
93 for 342 (27%)
$803.3 mutuels ($8.64 avg)
