Visit Dabble |
Belmont will host a very competitive nine-race program this Saturday afternoon, with racing set to kick off at 12:29pm AWST. The track was rated as a Soft 7 at the time of acceptances, and it is tipped to stay in that range. The rail will be pushed out to the +6m position for the entire circuit, so the track should play favourably to on-speed runners.
Best Bet at Belmont: Triple Jay
Triple Jay claimed his third win in four starts when defeating Allez Allez at this track and tip on July 13. The five-year-old gelding now steps up in grade, but as he is at peak fitness and in career-best form, he should handle the rise in class well. Brad Parnham will settle Triple Jay outside the leader before releasing the brakes and allowing him to unleash with a strong finish.
Best Bet
Race 5 – #4 Triple Jay (8)
5yo Gelding | T: Daniel & Ben Pearce | J: Brad Parnham (58kg)

Next Best at Belmont: Sentimental Belle
William Pike sticks on Sentimental Belle as the mare chases a hat-trick of wins. Last start, this daughter of Nicconi settled near last and received a saloon passage up the inside rail to run over the leaders and win by 1.3 lengths over 1200m. Although she will rise in grade slightly and stay at 1200m, barrier one will only help the five-year-old’s chances.
Next Best
Race 7 – #8 Sentimental Belle (1)
5yo Mare | T: Grant & Alana Williams | J: William Pike (56kg)

Best Value at Belmont: Border Force
Border Force returned from a 17-month spell with a strong performance over 1100m at Northam, where the Sean & Jake Casey-trained gelding was eventually run down by Extreme Love. With that fresh run under his belt, this lightly raced six-year-old gelding will only improve second-up. If Chris Parnham can settle in the box seat and get into clear running at the 300m mark, Border Force can go one better.
Best Value
Race 4 – #6 Border Force (1)
6yo Gelding | T: Sean & Jake Casey | J: Chris Parnham (56.5kg)
