Two Listed races are run at Belmont this weekend but our best is earlier than they are run.
In Race 4, Battle Storm tries to remain unbeaten and all his wins come at Belmont.
He resumed two weeks ago over this course, got back in the field and rattled home to win with a little to spare.
Remaining on the limit weight, William Pike is still able to make the 54kg and because of the field size, that should generate the necessary tempo.
From there his finish will make him hard to hold out.
The each way play comes up in the Belmont Guineas. Again we are backing the pink and white cross but it isn't with the favourite.
True Attraction is bred to be wanting the mile and beyond and is hard fit for this test.
He would love if the forecast rain arrived as his efforts on softer going have been excellent.
The More Than Ready gelding will get out of his ground off the alley however he is used to that.
Expecting if the track became rain affected for them to scout wide and his strength to be important.
BEST FROM THE WEST
