Belmont Park Race 8 - Hudson S. Stakes
BUTTAH (1) is going well, scoring by 1.5 lengths two runs back in stakes class at Saratoga (Dirt) before finishing fourth last time over 1408m in the G3 Vosburgh Stakes at this track (Dirt). Can return to winning ways. SACROSANCT (8) added to his fine record when third over 1308m at Saratoga (Dirt) at the last run before going for a break on July 26. Goes very well when fresh from a spell with two wins from four starts so he is a leading contender. EL GRANDE O (2) lifted strongly to score by 0.1 lengths two runs back at Saratoga (Dirt) then ran sixth over 1408m in the G3 Vosburgh Stakes at this track (Dirt) last time in tougher grade. Should park just off the speed. One of the main contenders. CALDO CANDY (4) did a great job to score by 2 lengths over this course and distance last start in a much improved run. Looks well placed so expect another big run.
