1:05 pm ET Belmont Park (Race 1) – Sorority Party 2/1 (2-star play)

The daughter of budget stallion Bustin Stones showed good form when beaten just one-and-three-quarter-lengths into sixth in a nine runner maiden special weight over five furlongs on turf recently. The filly shaped as if she would improve for the experience that day while she looks unlikely to have any issues switched to the main track here. Irad Ortiz retains the ride here and his mount looks capable of breaking her maiden at the second time of asking.

1:36 pm ET Belmont Park (Race 2) – Catch The Party 7/5 (2-star play)

The six-year-old has won twice from six starts since joining the stable of Michael Maker including by a head over a mile-and-one-sixteenth on turf at Saratoga in September last year. The gelding returning this campaign with a length third having raced from off the pace in an allowance optional claimer over a mile here last month. The son of More Than Ready caught the eye that day and he looks capable of registering his fifth career win.

3:10 pm ET Belmont Park (Race 5) – Works For Me 5/2 (2-star play)

The son of Daddy Long Legs showed plenty of ability when debuting with a three-quarters-of-a-length third in a five furlong maiden special weight at Churchill Downs last month. The runner-up that day has won since while the two-year-old has changed trainer having previously been in the hands of Daniel Leitch. The colt has shown good form in the mornings of late including when delivering a 36.70 three furlong breeze here recently and he is taken to register his first victory.

4:48 pm ET Belmont Park (Race 8) – Cupid’s Heart 7/5 (2-star play)

The winner of three of her five starts to date the four-year-old impressed when delivering a five-and-a-quarter-length victory in an allowance event over six furlongs on a sloppy track at Saratoga last September. Subsequently scored over seven furlongs at Aqueduct when racing in an allowance optional claiming event and has been off the track since fading when seven lengths third upped to a mile at the same venue in November. She looks up to delivering a victory dropping in distance.

5:20 pm ET Belmont Park (Race 9) – Factually Correct 8/1 (1-star play)

Has performed well to finish on the board in four of his seven starts to date and ran well when beaten half-a-length in a six furlong maiden special weight at this venue early last month. Fair three-and-a-half-length sixth when fading late on upped to seven furlongs on turf here subsequently however. The son of Tourist has shown a liking for turf in the past and can help trainer Rudi Rodriguez improve on his 15% strike-rate (10/68) at this meeting.
