Belmont Park Race 5 - Race 5 - Mdn Claiming
FIGHTFORALLEGIANCE (9) is back after a break of six months. Started the last campaign in good style when in the placings over 1609m at Aqueduct. Should be hard to stop. INSTANTLY (4) is a four-start maiden who could only manage to finish fourth after being prominent at the bend at his latest appearance over 1609m at Saratoga Turf (Dirt). This looks a nice race so expect him to be right in the finish. SALVATION (1) showed good early speed when resuming last start over today's journey at Saratoga Turf (Dirt) before finishing third, beaten 5.5 lengths. Placed to advantage so expect a big run. STREAM IT (8) was prominent at the turn and finished second last time over 1609m at Saratoga (Dirt) when resuming from a spell, beaten 4.5 lengths. Has the ability to take care of this field.

At the latest run 7th of 12 at this track on September 30 over 1408m, 7 len behind Holding Power with 57kg at $4.54. The start before that 3rd of 8 at Saratoga on August 5 over 1207m, 10 len behind Abrigado carrying 57kg at $16.22. A top-three finish would surprise.

Colt back from a spell of six months. Has placed previously first up from a break.
