Belmont Park Race 6 - Race 6 - Mdn Special Weight
FIERCE HOPE (5) is a first-starter by Honest Mischief from Marvelous Martina who has been a prolific producer including winners at black type level. Sure to be well-educated, being from the Miguel Clement stable. Promising type who is ready to run a big race. NEVER BEFORE (3) could only manage eighth on debut then improved last start but found one better over 1106m at Saratoga, beaten 2.25 lengths after being prominent at the turn. Faces an easier assignment so he is a big chance to get the prize. SARATOGA TEA (6) missed the placings on debut two runs back then didn't feature last start when 7 lengths away in fifth over 1207m at Saratoga. Has the ability to find the winners' list. FREEDOM CHARGE (8) ran below expectations last time at Saratoga (Dirt), finishing sixth and beaten 8 lengths. Suitably placed so anticipating a better run this time.
