Belmont Park Race 1

Mdn Special Weight

Prize Money: $138,889

FOOLIN (7) looks close to a win after finishing in the money at both runs, the latest when third at Saratoga Turf (Turf) over 1106m. Should park just off the speed. Leading contender. DONEGAL LUSTER (2) is on debut for the Todd Pletcher stable. Two-year-old colt by City Of Light from Rehearsed. Bold showing expected. Watch betting. JOVEN (6) is on debut for the Danny Gargan stable. Two-year-old colt by Good Magic from Si Si Tequila. Worth including if well in commission. MISSION INTEGRITY (5) was never in contention on debut last time out over 1207m at Saratoga (Dirt), finishing fifth and beaten 17 lengths. Expected to improve sharply and worth including this line-up.
