Belmont Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Mdn Special Weight
TITAN READY (8) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1106m in Listed grade at Saratoga Turf (Turf). Faces an easier assignment so he is likely to play a big role. RIVER OF DECEIT (5) returned last time with a solid third in Listed grade at Saratoga Turf (Turf) over 1106m. This is the right race and can get the job done. LOYAL PRINCE (2) is close to breaking through after two consecutive placings, the latest at Monmouth Park Turf over 1609m. Has a good gate and gets his chance to break through. CAPTAIN G (4) was out of the money on debut two runs back then again missed the frame last start when he was never in contention over 1710m at Saratoga Inner Turf, beaten 8 lengths into eighth. Has the ability to produce a better result.

Two-year-old colt who is first starter by Mehmas out of Champagne Or Water. Nice profile and a bold showing is anticipated.
