Racing will return to Belmont this Saturday afternoon, where a nine-race program is set down for decision. With cool weather and some rain forecast, the track is expected to stay in the Soft range after being rated as a Soft 6 at the time of acceptances. The rail will be pushed out to the +3m position for the entire circuit, with racing set to kick off at 12:09pm AWST.
Best Bet at Belmont: Cleanmeup
Cleanmeup will seek to keep her undefeated start to her career intact when she heads to the races on Saturday. The Dion Luciani-trained filly couldn’t have been more impressive when settling on speed before booting clear halfway down the straight to win by 1.6 lengths eased down at this track and trip. William Pike has ridden a few of her market rivals in this race, but he has chosen to stay with this girl, which must be seen as a big push. If Cleanmeup can settle outside the leader and show a similar burst of acceleration in the final 400m, she will win again.
Best Bet
Race 2 – 
#5 Cleanmeup (4)
3yo Filly | T: Dion Luciani | J: William Pike (56kg)

Next Best at Belmont: Queen Of Jerusalem
Adam Durrant and Clint Johnston-Porter will combine with Queen Of Jerusalem for the fourth straight start as the six-year-old mare seeks to maintain a strong run of form. This daughter of God Has Spoken won three starts back before recording back-to-back third-place finishes at this track and trip. Although she rises in grade for this contest, this girl will carry much less weight than she has previously, and with that in her favour, she will prove very hard to beat.

Race 4 – 
#5 Queen Of Jerusalem (6)

Best Value at Belmont: Patron Of Kings
Patron Of Kings returned from a 21-week spell with an encouraging third-place finish at the Belmont 1200m, where the Chris & Michael Gangemi-trained galloper ran home nicely from the back of the field. This son of King’s Troop didn’t enjoy the firmer tracks last preparation, and now that he strikes another wet track, conditions will suit him much better here. With a good tempo expected to be set, Patron Of Kings turn of foot will see him play a prominent role in the finish.
Best Value
Race 7 – 
#6 Patron Of Kings (7)
5yo Gelding | T: Chris & Michael Gangemi | J: Shaun McGruddy (57.5kg)
