Saratoga Race 13 - Belmont S. Presented By Nyra Bets Stakes

JOURNALISM (7) scored at his most recent appearance, getting home by half a length over 1911m in the G1 Preakness Stakes at Pimlico (Dirt) as favourite. That continued the very strong form this campaign, with three wins from four outings. Sure to go well again. SOVEREIGNTY (2) has two wins and one placing from three runs this campaign. Scored last start by 1.5 lengths in the G1 Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs (Dirt) over 2012m after being racing in the leading division. Perfectly placed and is sure to prove tough to beat. BAEZA (6) won his maiden three starts back and is nearing another victory with placings at his last two runs, most recently when third over 2012m in the G1 Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs (Dirt). Has good early speed so should take up a forward position. One of the main contenders. RODRIGUEZ (3) looks to kick off this prep the way he ended the last nine weeks ago when he scored over 1811m at Aqueduct. Expected to feature.
