Our Belmont Horse Racing Tips for the weekend.
Eeyore Wayz (Belmont Race 8 No. 3)
This four-year-old gelding has had three wins and a place from six starts. He resumed after 20 weeks for a 2.1 length win over 1000m at Belmont on 29 July, then was well back and knuckled down late to finish strongly for an impressive 1 length win over 1000m at Belmont on 15 August. Looks the one to beat again.

Each Way
Freedom By Choice (Belmont Race 9 No. 3):
This eight-year-old gelding has had two races from a 13 week break. He resumed for 4.8 lengths 10th over 1400m at Belmont on 8 August but usually needs his first-up run anyway. At his latest start he was trapped three wide with no cover and worked into the race before the turn then chased hard the entire straight and got up in the last couple of strides to win by 0.77 lengths over 1650m at Belmont on 22 August. The extra distance should be a plus and he is worth a modest each-way bet.
