Belmont Race 2 - Jolly Beggar (Bm84+)

The feature of the day comes up early and last year's winner GINNIVAN (3) looks the one to beat first-up. He'll be fitter for two trials coming in and will find this easier than the Quokka lead-ups he tackled last time in work. Will relish the conditions and can return on a winning note. PULI (2) just missed two back in the Bolton before a 2.1L defeat in the Newmarket 21 days ago. Back to 1000m may hold the key and he looks a key pace influence off the inside. Racing well without winning and appears the main danger. HANCHI (6) bounced back following a disappointing run two back to finish 1.5L away last time out. May be able to take closer order this time around and can land the knockout blow without surprising. CUT THE TALK (5) was sound first-up in the same race as HANCHI and will be fitter for that effort. Can improve. GEMMA'S SON (1) looks well suited in this event and can put his best foot forward from an inside barrier.

Most recently ran last of 9 at Pinjarra in the LR Newmarket on August 9 over 1200m, on a slow track; 6 len behind Phanta carrying 55.5kg at $14. The start before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 4th of 9 at Bunbury in the LR H G Bolton on July 19 over 1200m, slow going 0.8 len behind Wind And The Lion carrying 55.5kg at $20. Looks to set up nicely for him here and he should get his chance.

Last start 3rd of 8 at this track Rtg 72+ on August 16 over 1000m, on a slow track; 2.5 len behind Madhi Girl with 57kg at $31. The race before that raced behind the speed prior to fading 7th of 9 at Pinjarra in the LR Newmarket on August 9 over 1200m, on a slow track; 4.5 len behind Phanta with 54kg at $101. Better last start but others make more appeal.
