Belmont: Saturday, 10/31 Plays R11 ** Pete's Picks **
We have 11 races at Belmont and Beeders Cup Saturday at Keeneland. I will be condensing my plays down to just the number and attacking the early double (Races 1 & 2) and a spot pick 3 (Races 7-9). Big Pete will attack two "Play of the Day" and the late pick 3 (Races 10-12); GOOD LUCK.

Big Pete's "Play of the Day":
Race 3:
Dutrow added the blinkers to (4) L'ECLAIR last time out and she focused on business. Just missed against slightly better and comes back with the hot jock right now. Plenty of speed up front to set up that late kick.
$ 7.00 WPS 4 Cost: $ 21.00
$ 3.00 Ex Box 1, 4, 7 Cost: $ 18.00
We'll use (4) L'Eclair in R3 and try to cash in on a Daily Double.
(1) Power Of Women or (2) Morning Prayer in the 4th.
$ 7.00 Daily Double 4 w/ 1, 2 Cost $ 14.00
Big Pete's "Play of the Day":
Race 5:
I want to give (7) B THE DONALD another chance as he was away slow last time and never had a chance after that. A clean break today puts him in rhythm to stalk and come get them late. There's enough speed entered to set him up.
$ 7.00 WPS 7 Cost: $ 21.00
$ 3.00 Ex Box 4, 7, 8 Cost: $ 18.00
We'll use (7) B The Donald in R5 and try to cash in on a Daily Double.
(3) Borago or (11) Hyperborean Spirit in the 6th.
$ 5.00 Daily Double 7 w/ 3, 11 Cost $ 10.00
Big Pete's Late Pick 3:
Race 9:
(1) PROGRAM TRADING has the connections and inside draw. Davis will bide his time and let this 6yr old gather momentum to run them down late. (2) TIZ DASHING is the other big name as this colt ships back in after a bad run at Keeneland. They look to get back to high speed figures that he's used to. The sleeper is (7) CUGINO who finished behind Tiz last time but draws outside his rivals and will come running late as well. He should get first jump today.
$ 7.00 WPS 7 Cost: $ 21.00
$ 3.00 Ex Box 1, 2, 7 Cost: $ 18.00
Race 10:
(3) EXTRAVAGANZOO will be tough to beat if she runs her last race. She got a nice set up then but may not get the same here. We'll use but try to beat. I'll try the Golden Pal filly with speed (9) GOLDEN MAIDEN. She won easy on debut with a front running score. Guessing Fresu will send again and there doesn't appear to be too much speed entered here. (8) LUCK PENNY is the other Weaver. She switched to grass and she responded well. If her stablemate brings her B game, she can save the day with a late charge.
$ 7.00 WPS 9 Cost: $ 21.00
$ 3.00 Ex Box 3, 8, 9 Cost: $ 18.00
Race 11:
(1) VIOLENT ACT switches to dirt and drops to an easier level. He exits a race where there was a next out winner. 3:1ML seems like a gift assuming he handles the dirt. (6) WAR PROFITEER also moves to the dirt and sports some of the highest speed figures of this bunch. Switches riders too. Both (9) HURRICANE KAZ and (10) IT'S BANKSY are two with some speed. If either can shake loose, they become dangerous to take them all the way.
