Belmont Newmarket tip: Red Fifty Three
Following a fourth-place finish in the Bolton Sprint, Red Fifty Three looks ready to run a big race second-up. William Pike retains the ride on this six-year-old gelding, who will be seeking his first win in Listed grade. The son of Gingerbread Man will settle midfield from barrier six, and if he can find a back to follow around the home turn, Red Fifty Three can take out the 2024 Belmont Newmarket.

Best Bet at Belmont: Sensessional
Sensessional brought up a hat-trick of wins at this track and trip on July 20, when William Pike gave him a perfectly timed ride to win in a photo finish. Hailing from the Grant & Alana Williams stable, this four-year-old gelding has been going through his grades nicely this time in. From barrier two, Sensessional will receive the perfect run in transit, and with even luck, he can extend his win streak to four.

Next Best at Belmont: Songaa
Songaa returned from an 18-week spell with an ultra-impressive victory at this track and trip on July 20. The Mitchell Pateman-trained gelding has a strong record at the Belmont 1000m (5:3-0-1), and he will only improve second-up. With a hot tempo expected, Holly Watson can settle midfield on Songaa and save him up for one last crack in the final 300m.

Best Value at Belmont: Ultimate Command
Ultimate Command could not hold out Russian Sniper when they clashed at the Belmont 1000m on July 27; however, with the aid of Luke Campbell’s claim, she meets her rival 2kg better off at the weights this time. This daughter of Rommel has impressive second-up form (6:3-0-0), and now that she rises to 1200m, Ultimate Command can turn the tables and get back to winning ways.
