Belmont Race 4 - Jockey Celebration Day (Bm84+)
INVESTMENTSTRATEGY (5) resumes today on the back of a nice trial win last month. He's never really fired first-up, but this looks a very suitable race on resumption as gets in at the bottom of the handicap. The draw should see him close to the speed and if he's up to the mark fresh, he'll take beating. VAST ART (1) was very good first-up in the H.G. Bolton when finishing off powerfully over 1200m. Up in trip is a big tick for him and he's placed 3/5 second-up. Laid the foundations last start and can go one better this time around. MULTINATIONAL (3) just missed two back before getting the job done in heavy going at Pinjarra last start. That was over the mile, though he's now 42 days between runs and he maps to find the front. Can give a bold sight. SENSESSIONAL (4) tends to go well fresh and the soggy conditions won't hurt. Can feature with Pike on. LORD GANNICUS (9) surprised last start but turned in a strong figure and can feature again.

Second run back. First-up after five months 2nd of 9 at Bunbury in the LR H G Bolton on July 19 over 1200m, slow going neck behind Wind And The Lion carrying 55.5kg at $13. Previously second-up 5th of 9 at Pinjarra in the LR Pinjarra Clsc on February 23 over 1300m, 2.5 len behind Snowdome with 56kg at $20. Big run fresh and he can land the knockout blow.

At the latest run 6th of 9 at Bunbury in the LR H G Bolton on July 19 over 1200m, on a slow track; 5 len behind Wind And The Lion carrying 55kg at $16. The start before that 13th of 16 at Pinjarra Scarpside in the G3 Hyperion on June 7 over 1600m, 6 len behind Western Empire with 59kg at $201. Unreliable and needs to lift.

Form hard to fault. Comes here off a 42-day let-up. Last start raced right near the speed and boxed on; won by a nose at Pinjarra Rtg 78+ June 21 over 1600m on a heavy track defeating Noteworthy with 56.5kg at $7.50. Before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 15 at Pinjarra Scarpside Rtg 78+ on June 7 over 1400m, 1.1 len behind Luvnwar carrying 56.5kg at $21. Comes into this on the fresh side and can repeat the dose.

Resumes after a break of four-and-a-half months and has been in the money when fresh before. Finished off last campaign sixth of 11 at Pinjarra in the LR Pinjarra Cup March 23 over 2300m, 2.75 len behind Currimundi with 54.5kg at $6.50. Previously first up; second in a small field at Ascot Rtg 72+ January 11 over 1400m, 1.5 len behind Yarralea carrying 58.5kg at $11. Everything points to a positive return.

At the latest run second last of 8 at Bunbury in the LR Sw Autumn Cup on July 6 over 2200m, on a wet track; 13 len behind Ginger Baker with 55kg at $26. The race before that from last on the turn 5th of 9 at Pinjarra Rtg 78+ on June 21 over 1600m, in the wet; 2 len behind Multinational carrying 57kg at $26. Will need to do a bit more.

Recent form sound. Most recently won by 0.7 len at Pinjarra Rtg 72+ July 5 over 1600m in soft going defeating First Encounter carrying 58kg at $26. Before that 2nd of 12 at Bunbury Rtg 66+ on June 14 over 1690m, on a slow track; nose behind Famous Dain with 60kg at $19. Unlikely win last start but the figures were strong and he's not out of this.
