Belmont Park Race 1 - Race 1 - Mdn Special Weight
ORIGINALITY (6) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when third at this track (Dirt) over 1207m. Blinkers go on today; looks a top chance. SIR DUKE (5) went forward and gave a great sight before finishing second last time out over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to give this a mighty shake. OUTLAW MAN (2) is a three-year-old colt who is having his first run for the Saffie A Joseph (Jnr) barn. Resumes after finishing fourth at Dundalk All Weather at his last run three-and-a-half months ago. Hasn't trialled publicly but looks nicely placed. Expected to be in the finish. LEGAL GAMBIT (3) has not appeared since he finished third on debut over 1308m at Saratoga on August 2 2025. Major player.
