Belmont Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Allowance Optional Claiming

PARTY IN THE ARMY (2) is ready to win after he just missed last time, beaten half a length into second over 1308m at Saratoga (Dirt) after being in contention all the way. Drawn to enjoy a good run on the speed. Best figures measure up. Sure to run well. RADIO RED (5) lines up for the first time since August 6. Looking to emulate his win at Aqueduct when returning from a spell last prep. Rates highly and should take some beating. VEKINDA (3) went fast early over 1207m at Saratoga (Dirt) when resuming last time and went on to score by 1.3 lengths. Likely improver with strong prospects. FACTUALLY CORRECT (8) produced a reasonable effort when third last start over 1308m at Saratoga. That followed a win at Saratoga the start prior. Should be thereabouts.

Third-up today and placed third-up in the past. First-up 3rd in a small field at Saratoga on August 7 over 1207m, 1.3 len behind Anyway carrying 55.5kg at $2.77. Last start held ground to the line 2nd of 8 at Saratoga on September 5 over 1308m, 0.5 len behind Three B's carrying 56kg at $5.04. Can improve. Top chance if at his best.

Racing well recently. Comes off a 33 day let-up. Most recently 3rd of 8 at Saratoga on September 5 over 1308m, 0.6 len behind Three B's carrying 57kg at $15.17. The race before that won by a 0.3 len at Saratoga on July 30 over 1207m defeating Run Classic carrying 56kg at $6.62. Worth thought on latest effort.
