Belmont racing takes place on Wednesday, 11 November with a 7-race program set down for the Belmont racetrack.

We have the best bets picked from across the meeting with a Best Bet and other value selections for  Belmont racetrack.


Race 3: No.1  Don’t Declare


The Simon Miller-trained galloper is second-up here and with a little luck at the gates, can figure in the finish of this event.

Last start, the Written By gelding resumed off a six-month absence and did well to finish third in a set weights Maiden over 1100m at Northam.

From gate one, William Pike had him box-seating on settling to the turn, then coming off heels, Pike couldn’t get clear and was held up to the 200m mark then found clean air and hit the line hard, arriving in time to grab that minor prize on the line, beaten just over a length in the end.

Drawn wide in gate 10 today, he maps to cross and settle near mid-field with Pike steering the ship again for this assignment.

Fitter for that first-up run, the step-up to the 1300m looks ideal for him now and evading any trouble here, the four-year-old should prove hard to hold out in this contest.


Race 5: No.2  Unimando


Darren Taylor saddles-up Unimando here who is high-flying after three starts back and looks well placed to go on with it in this event.

Last start, the Universal Ruler gelding came off his Maiden win at Northam when lined-up in a Class 1 Hcp, here over 1200m and went back-to-back by taking out that event as well.

From gate nine (of 10), Chloe Azzopardi pushed him forward and settled second outside the leader to the turn, then on straightening, quickly took over and went on to win comfortably in the end.

Stepping-up to Class 3 company here, he draws well in gate four and maps to settle on or near the speed with Azzopardi retaining the ride.

In winning form and already a winner at the track and distance, the four-year-old looks set for the hat-trick in this contest.


Race 6: No.5  De Lago’s Rock


The Josh Brown-trained galloper is yet to miss the podium in three starts this time in and looks set for back-to-back success in this event.

Last start, the Awesome Rock gelding came off back-to-back minor placings when he recorded his first win by taking out a set weights Maiden over 1600m at Northam.

Brilliantly ridden by William Pike, he had the gelding box-seating from the outset to the turn, then peeled off heels and in the run home, proved too good for the 12-stong field, crossing the line more than two lengths clear in the end.

Facing the rise to Class 1 competition here, he draws gate six and maps to cross and settle better than mid-field with Pike in the saddle again.

In career-best form and at his peak here, the three-year-old looks the testing material in this contest.
