Race Date | May 22, 2021 |
Track | Belmont Park |
Race | 9 |
Overview | A very strong renewal of the Seek Again, which could easily be a graded stakes race. |
Pace | There’s not much here, which should really play into the hands of #5 GET SMOKIN (5-1), who should have a big tactical edge on or just off the early pace. |
Trends | Both surfaces continue to play fair, with the winners coming from everyone and with all running styles, which is all a handicapper can ask for. |
Best Bet | GET SMOKIN |
Number | 5 |
Morning Line | (5-1) |
Best Bet Overview | #5 GET SMOKIN (5-1) (turf only): Pace player got absolutely fired in the G1 last time but on his day he’s as good as anyone here, and if he shakes loose early, he may not come back late. |
Picks & Plays | Aggressive WP bet, strong EX over 10,6 with smaller backups underneath, and single in the late Pk5/Pk4. |
Stats | 166-36-20-19 ($1.83/$5.10 ROI through 5/16) Bel Meet: 56-15-9-12 ($2.06/$5.72 ROI through 5/16) |
