Belmont Park Race 8 - Race 8 - Mdn Claiming
WHERE'S YOUR BOOM (4) was well fancied last time and did a good job to finish second over 2012m at this track (Dirt) at the third run of the prep. Has the pace to be in a prominent position from the outset. Likely to feature. SFUMATO (3) is yet to break through after six starts but not far off a win. Placed two back then missed the frame but was thereabouts last time over 1509m at this track (Dirt). Nicely placed to open his account. AUTHENTIC LEGEND (6) returned from a spell four weeks ago when he was beaten 3 lengths into fifth over 1609m at this track. Strips fitter and can bounce back. TRUE ADIRONDACKER (1) is a seven-start maiden who was in the placings at his last two starts, finishing second at the latest appearance over 1609m at this track (Dirt). Don't underestimate.

Form hard to fault. At the latest run raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 2nd of 7 at this track on October 29 over 1609m, 4.5 len behind Kings Landyn carrying 55.5kg at $5.55. The race before that raced on the speed and boxed on steadily 3rd of 8 at this track on October 10 over 1509m, 0.9 len behind Chris's Song carrying 56kg at $32.55. Won't spend a penny in the run from the inside alley. Good each-way hope.
