Belmont Tips September 5
MC Polytrack Plate Tips (Race 1)
Belmont Value Bet - Race 1 No. 7 Sarabi
Aaron Mitchell looks to have a progressive filly on his hands with Sarabi, who was thought highly enough of to debut in the Listed Supremacy Stakes as a two-year-old on March 21.
The daughter of Maschino was still learning her craft there but was far from disgraced at a big price, before heading to the paddock and returning with an encouraging 1000m Belmont trial on August 3.
She resumed five days later from a wide draw over 1000m and was allowed to find her feet at the rear, before picking up strongly late despite having to dive towards the inside and encountering restricted room.
Sarabi recorded the fastest closing sectionals of that race as well as the quickest final 600m and 400m of the entire meeting, suggesting she is crying out for more ground.
The jump from 1000m to 1400m is an aggressive move early in the preparation, but there should be improvement to come and the booking of Lucy Fiore, who recently brought up her 100th winner for the year, is another positive.

Belmont Best Bet - Race 2 No. 6 So Si God
There were genuine excuses for So Si God's first-up defeat as a drifting favourite over 1000m at Belmont on August 22, with the mare casting a plate and also getting her tongue over the bit.
A bit lifter is applied for this second-up assignment and connections have clearly been happy to forgive that return, electing to tackle this stronger No Metro Wins contest rather than a much weaker Class 1 on Wednesday.
The rise to 1200m should suit, with her debut victory at Ascot earlier in the year coming over this trip before she remained consistent throughout the remainder of that first preparation.
She finished in the money in five subsequent starts, including a close second to Urquharts Bluff over 1200m at Ascot on March 14, with that runner going on to win twice in solid company through the winter.
Chris Parnham returns to the saddle after partnering So Si God throughout her first campaign and in her August 3 trial win, and with clear excuses first-up and plenty of upside, she gets her chance to atone.

Belmont Next Best Bet - Race 3 No. 7 Truly Loyal
William Pike and Michael Grantham have formed a potent combination over the past 12 months, striking at 36.4% together with an ROI of almost 17% heading into Saturday.
Those figures are particularly impressive given how often the pair combine with short-priced runners, and Pike has already had two race-day rides aboard Truly Loyal.
The first came when the gelding was beaten as an odds-on favourite on debut on April 22, although that performance is worth forgiving after he settled back from a wide draw and never looked comfortable over a trip short of his best.
Truly Loyal returned on August 26 and atoned in style, coming from midfield before sweeping past his rivals in the straight, with the performance carrying extra merit given the on-speed runners generally held their ground.
With only one lead-up trial before that first-up success, there should be further improvement to come and, although less seasoned than several rivals, Truly Loyal appears to have the most upside in this affair.

Belmont Roughie - Race 8 No. 12 Let Sparks Fly
The third-up failure from Let Sparks Fly at Pinjarra on August 28 looked far too bad to be true after she appeared to travel comfortably before stopping quickly.
Her rider reported respiratory noises afterwards and the mare was scoped post-race, providing a legitimate reason to overlook that Class 5 performance.
Her two previous winter runs had suggested the six-year-old returned in good order, lacking the change-up speed but picking up late over 1400m first-up at Pinjarra before making ground when stepping to a mile at Northam on August 6.
The rise to 2100m is a positive given her best form last campaign came over these longer trips, highlighted by consecutive 2000m victories at Pinjarra, the first of those with Tash Faithfull aboard.
Faithfull returns after riding a Thursday double at Northam and, in a wide-open staying contest where the leading chances have their own queries, Let Sparks Fly can be specked each-way at a huge price.
