Our Belmont Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
Miss Conteki (Belmont Race 5 No. 4)
This four-year-old Eurozone mare trained by Simon Miller has seven wins from eight starts, and has won her last six starts in a row. She took over at the 200m and was ridden out for a length win over 1200m at Ascot on 17 April, then was in traffic at the turn before running on strongly and taking over late for a 0.39 length win over 1000m at Ascot on 1 May with the best final 400m of the meeting. Returns from an eight week let-up and should win again.

Each Way
Secret Statue (Belmont Race 6 No. 15):
This four-year-old Statue Of Liberty gelding trained by Grant and Alana Williams has one win and three places from eight starts. He was forced very wide in the straight and kept coming gamely for 0.16, 0.59 lengths 3rd over 1400m at Belmont on 2 June, then ran on strongly to just miss for 0.18 length 2nd over 1400m at Belmont on 12 June. Drawn ideally in barrier 1 he looks a great each-way chance again.

Best Lay
Born To Try (Belmont Race 7 No. 10):
This four-year-old Blackfriars mare is the early favourite in this RTG 72+ Handicap race over 2200m. He was held up from the turn to the 100m and was a little unlucky when 1.22 lengths 2nd over 2100m at Belmont on 29 May, then wound up gamely for 0.78, 0.4 lengths 3rd over 2200m at Belmont on 12 June. He has drawn the outside barrier and others look to have better chances.

Key Comments The rail is true. Racing on the synthetic. The best bet comes up in the first and just needs even luck from the barrier to be winning. Best Bet Howgoodisvegas (Canberra Race 1 No. 1) 2 wins on the trot and both of them have been convincing. Should be able to slide forward from the wide draw and make It three in a row.

Horse Racing Tips: VIC Friday 17th May 2024
Key Comments The rail is out 9 metres the entire way. The best bet comes up in the last race of the day and is progressive enough to go right on with things. Best Bet Hypeman (Cranbourne Race 8 No. 6) Won nicely breaking maiden and looks progressive enough to go on with things here. Can bounce to the front from barrier 1 and looks a suitable race for Ethan Brown to take out. Check odds on SmartB Analyst: Bryce Parker
