Belmont Race 3 - Mc Polytrack (Bm72+)
THE CRIMSON PIRATE (7) found them a bit sharp in his latest trial, though his late work was solid when under riding. He was a strong winner fresh and worked through the grades nicely, with the sting out of the ground no issue for him. Can return with a bang. ANGEL UNDERCOVER (1) just missed here last start when the race favourite in a stronger event, beaten 0.8L. Riordan's claim comes in handy as she carries top weight here, though she does come in with some strong form under her belt. Has won 2/4 third-up and looks ready to strike again. YES I KNOW (8) was very impressive over 1200m last start when rounding them up after being slowly away. He is right up in grade now, but his Victorian form - particularly at this trip - makes for good reading. Can make his presence felt. CHARINO (2) is better than he showed last start and can improve. WONDERFULLY MADE (6) hit the line alongside THE CRIMSON PIRATE in her heat. Fiore rides her over THE CRIMSON PIRATE too. Can return on a winning note.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. First-up 2nd of 14 at this track on July 18 over 1200m, on a slow track; 1.5 len behind Urquharts Bluff with 58.5kg at $19. Second run from a spell sat on the pace when 2nd of 12 at this track on August 1 over 1400m, on a slow track; 0.8 len behind Too Dardy carrying 56.5kg at $3.80. Knocking on the door and she makes plenty of appeal.

Most recently 7th of 15 at this track on July 25 over 1400m, 3 len behind Zourun Run carrying 60kg at $4.60. The race before that favourite; tracked the speed and boxed on steadily; won by 1.2 len at this track on June 27 over 1200m in the wet defeating Norich carrying 59.5kg at $3.70. Well-placed to make amends.

Third-up today and won third-up in the past. Resuming 14th of 16 in the LR Beaufine Stakes at this track on July 11 over 1000m, 11 len behind Immortal Bliss carrying 54kg at $151. Last start raced on the pace before fading ran last of 12 at this track on August 1 over 1400m, on a slow track; 7 len behind Too Dardy with 56kg at $101. Happy to overlook.

Before that sat on the speed throughout before fading 7th of 15 at this track on July 4 over 1400m, on a slow track; 2.25 len behind Olympic Park with 55.5kg at $26. Will find this tough; not today.

Previous preparation first-up favourite; won by 1.4 len Ascot 3yo 0Mwly January 28 over 1400m defeating Naughty Lord carrying 57.5kg at $2.60. Trial was just fair coming in but she can't be discounted with her talent.

Third-up today and won third-up previously. First-up 13th of 16 at this track on July 18 over 1200m, on a slow track; 8 len behind In Confidence with 57.5kg at $4.40. Second run from a spell won by a neck at this track on August 1 over 1200m on a soft track defeating God's Gate with 57kg at $8.50. Too good last time out and he can fire again out in trip.
