Belmont Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Mdn Claiming
BOURBONCENTRIC (2) has been in the money three times including last start on October 10 when second over 1609m at this track (Turf). Has been in the frame at both appearances at this venue. Among the top chances. BEFORE THE WIND (4) is yet to break through in 12 runs. Finished fifth at his last appearance over 1710m at this track (Turf) on October 8. Well placed on this occasion and gets his chance to break the ice. EMOTIONLYAVAILBLE (11) was well fancied last time out but disappointed in finishing fourth over 1811m at Belmont Park Inner Turf (Turf), beaten 5.5 lengths. Expected to feature in the finish this time. CLASSIC COMMANDER (3) has put together back-to-back placings, the latest when 5 lengths away in third over 1609m at this track (Turf). Likely to be about the mark again.

Racing well recently. Last start held ground to the line 2nd of 12 at this track on October 10 over 1609m, 0.5 len behind Gilbane carrying 55.5kg at $4.97. The run before that sat on speed throughout when 3rd of 10 at Belmont Park Inner Turf on September 19 over 1811m, 1.75 len behind Beau Cheval carrying 55.5kg at $4.54. Doesn't need to improve much to salute.

Racing well recently. At the latest run 3rd of 12 at this track on October 10 over 1609m, 5 len behind Gilbane with 55.5kg at $5.99. Before that made ground from midfield; 3rd of 12 at Belmont Park Inner Turf on September 24 over 1207m, 1.75 len behind Eye On The Ball with 56kg at $8.43. Definite winning chance. Keep safe.
