Belmont Park will host a competitive nine-race card on Saturday afternoon, with the first event scheduled to kick off at 12:14pm AWST. With warm weather and no rain forecast in the lead up to the meeting, the track is expected to remain a Good 4 throughout the day. The rail will move back into its true position for the entire circuit.
Best Bet at Belmont: Vast Art
Vast Art drops back from three Listed contests to a Benchmark 84+ Handicap fourth-up for this preparation and appears very well placed to record his first win this time in. The Darren McAuliffe-trained gelding has been finishing off nicely over 1200m, 1300m and 1400m, indicating that a rise to 1600m will be ideal for him at peak fitness. The son of Flying Artie will also strike a firmer surface, and if Clint Johnston-Porter can settle on speed from barrier five, Vast Art should prove too classy.
Best Bet
Race 5 – #4 Vast Art (5)
5yo Gelding | T: Darren McAuliffe | J: Clint Johnston-Porter (58.5kg)

Next Best at Belmont: Otheroneson
Otheroneson and Desert Nymph will meet again after they finished one-two a Benchmark 72+ Handicap on August 21 over 1300m; however, conditions will favour the former here, as he performs much better on Good ground. The Luke Fernie-trained galloper has been very good since returning from a 112-week spell, and now that he has two runs under his belt, he appears primed to win third-up. Brad Parnham will push forward from barrier seven, and if he settles outside the leader, Otheroneson will give them something to chase, turning for home.
Next Best
Race 4 – #3 Otheroneson (7)
6yo Gelding | T: Luke Fernie | J: Brad Parnham (58kg)
+190 with Neds
Best Value at Belmont: Megami
Takahide Ikenushi and Jarrad Noske will combine with Megami, who will return from an 18-week spell in a much weaker grade than she contested last preparation. The daughter of Playing God owns a strong record at the Belmont 1600m (5:3-0-1), and even though she has only won once from five fresh starts, she gets a very good chance to return with a win. With $21 on offer with top horse racing bookmakers, Megami looks to be a great each-way bet in the second leg of the quaddie.
Best Value
Race 7 – #1 Megami (2)
5yo Mare | T: Takahide Ikenushi | J: Jarrad Noske (60kg)
