Belmont Derby Invitational selection
Happy Fourth! The richest race tomorrow is this 10F event for 3year olds on the inner turf at BEL. There has been a lot of rain in the NE this week courtesy of Hurricane Arthur, and the handicapping is made doubly tricky by the presence of 4 European raiders in the field of 11, incl. Toast of New York that upset the UAE Derby back in the spring at 40/1, as well as the French horse Pornichet, the trainer listed as one Gai Waterhouse (?). Anway, i'm selecting #3 Bobby's Kitten from the Chad Brown yard (one of the strongest turf outfits in the country), Javier Castellano up, and I see him getting the early lead from PP3 and being hard to run down, although he's untried at the distance but nicely bred with 22 DP, a CD of 1.93 and a DI of 0.41. None of the field has any wet form and his Tomlinson is 369. The question is whether he's Gr 1 material but he's a nice 6/1 on the ML.
