It is Black Heart Bart Stakes Day at Belmont on Saturday afternoon where a nine-race program is scheduled for the metropolitan meeting in Perth. With persistent rain forecast for the area on Saturday, we expect to be racing on at least a Soft 7, with rail coming out 9m for the entire circuit. The first race is set to go at 12:19pm AWST, with the quaddie getting underway at 3:30pm.
Black Heart Bart Stakes Best Bet – It’sarayday
Having had a brief three-month spell, the Simon Miller-trained It’sarayday comes to the Listed Black Heart Bart Stakes looking to make it four wins from as many fresh runs. The four-year-old gelding relishes the Belmont 1200m, having won twice and finish second from four starts at the track and trip. The Winning Rupert gelding has not finished worse than second in four runs on rain-affected going and is set to handle what is in front of him with great aplomb. From barrier four, look for Brad Parnham to have his mount lobbed in the one-one and when asked for an effort, It’sarayday will quicken nicely and should ultimately prove too hard to hold out in Saturday’s feature.

Best Bet at Belmont – Western Knight
Formidable pairing Adam Durrant and Clint Johnston-Porter look the ones to side with in the penultimate race of the day when they team up with Western Knight. The four-year-old gelding was desperately unlucky at the Belmont 1400m when held up for a run until it was too late. He managed to find clear air inside the final furlong and did well to beaten just under a long neck. He draws out in barrier seven on Saturday and with the ‘Hyphenator’ sticking on board, the duo will be out for redemption. As long as there is no traffic issues in running, Western Knight looks a class above his rivals and despite being an even-money quote with online bookmakers, he looks a clear best bet of the day.

Best Value at Belmont – Mega Reward
The Ashley Maley-trained Mega Reward is yet to finish outside of the top three in each of his last six starts and in the process has recorded three victories in that time. He looked to have plenty of excuses last time out when travelling wide throughout and to add to that, laid in throughout the concluding stages, thus throwing away any chance of winning. He was beaten under a half-length that day and with better racing manners, this son of Reward for Effort looks to present great value. From barrier five, look for Paul Harvey to have his mount settled outside the leader and with a few of the main market fancies being backmarkers, we are hoping he can pinch a winning break at the top of the straight. The $14 with online betting sites looks to be the wrong price and one we are willing to advantage of.
