RACES SEPT. 12

BELMONT....

RACE 4, THE RUFFIAN
1 Seventh Street, never a bad race. (120@105)
2 Swift Temper, wire or nothing. (121@108)
5 Luna Vega, huge wins (120@104)
Really, this is shaping up as a three horse race. I'm ranking them all as 3-1, and backing any that drift away in the odds.

RACE 8, THE GARDEN CITY
1 Gozzip Girl 101@117 she's 5-for-8 and rarely out of it.
7 Pull Dancer 97@116 in form and worth a longshot price.
6 Shared Account 96@117 Toss Gulfstream disasters, see a real winner.
9 Keertana 95@117. In form and worth a longshot.
8-Maram 101@117. Never beaten.
So with five horses in, we need 5-1.

MONMOUTH, RACE 9
12 Manitoba Miss 100@118. Monster win, expect less this time.
3 Quiet Meadow 95@118. Overmatched in Diana, consistent otherwise.
11 Annabill 94@118. Tricky form in slop, and Elvis atop?
10 American Border 98@120. Elvis up?
2 Diamond Dina 90@118. 3 straight wins, Dutrow claim.
Again 5-1, partial to the #10.
