Belmont Park Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming
RED STATE (9) finished last campaign with a couple of minor placings, the latest over 1207m at Saratoga ten weeks ago. Should be poised just off the lead. Expecting a bold showing. GO IRISH (3) turned in a solid fresh performance last start when a minor placegetter over 1207m at Monmouth Park (Dirt), beaten 2 lengths. Has an excellent record when second-up, including two wins, and should be fitter with a run under the belt. Can feature with the right run. BIG HAT WILLIE (5) ran fourth at his latest appearance over 1207m at Saratoga, finishing 5 lengths from the winner. Has solid credentials. UNCLE JIM (4) was safely held when resuming last start over 1408m at Saratoga (Dirt), finishing seventh and beaten 13 lengths. Expected to do far better this time.

Most recently 6th of 8 at Saratoga on August 28 over 1308m, 15 len behind Shoot The Nickel carrying 56kg at $43.29. The run before that ran last of 8 at Saratoga Turf on July 17 over 1106m, 17 len behind Boston's Phinest with 57kg at $56.47. Might need easier race.
