The ROTW will be the Peter Pan from Belmont. With hope it\'ll be ready in an hour or so.

1 Isn\'t He Perfect - Over developed and too slow.  Another forward move unlikely.  Toss.
2 Uncle Brent - Contender, but underlay.  Exotic use only.
3 Beer Meister - I give major ups to both his Turf Paradise and Sunland Derby performances.  Big price and if there\'s a pace meltdown, he\'s got a great chance at hitting the board.
4 Prime Cut - Very eligible to make a forward move here.  Must exotic use.
5 Tap Attack - See Isn\'t He Perfect.
6 Alternation - I think he has room to move forward a little more and be very competitive here.  
7 Bold Deed - Don\'t think he\'ll enjoy the extra distance.  Will need a big forward move and I\'m not high on the chances of it happening.  Toss.
8 Adios Charlie - Indian Charlie won\'t want the extra furlong, throw in a potential hot pace and his price?  Toss.
9 Newsdad - Ready to explode with a big forward move after a troubled Bluegrass.  If he takes to the dirt, he\'ll be very dangerous here IMO.  Pace could set up perfectly.  Mott is starting to heat up.  I\'m using him.
10 Joe Vann - A pair or forward move here isn\'t impossible, the price stinks but he\'s hard to toss.
11 Monzon - Doesn\'t float my boat.

 
I see a speed duel breaking out here and a few of these with questionable distance breeding not surviving.

Newsdad breezed the Belmont surface very sharply the other day.  IF he\'s anywhere near his ML I\'ll be happy. He\'s my top dog.   Him and Alternation will be my keys in the exotics.

Beer Meister, Prime Cut on my 2nd tier.

Uncle Brent, Joe Vann in the bottom shelf.

Sekrah,

So much for retirement !!! LOL

It is good to have you back.
Very tough race and I agree with you on Newsdad, Mott has got to get going with what he has in his barn but prefer Prime Cut as my key.

In the spirit of \" pusillanimous wagering \" and with history tending to repeat itself ? TGAB has selected a 30 /1 and 15/1 shot for the race. We know if he doesn\'t bet them ??? They will be there. So I\'ll use those 2 and Newsdad in the mix keying Prime Cut 1st & 2nd in exactas and tri\'s.

Good luck,

Frank D.

Hope Alan has the \"testicular fortitude\" (a term coined by our former Gov. Blago here in the corrupt state of Illinois) to work in this awesome Word Of The Week on Jason\'s show this morning.

Don\'t miss it.

Alternation\'s trainer has only shipped into Belmont once in the past 5 years, so you would have to think that it shows positive trainer intent and that he is very live.

Similar situation with Lynn Whiting, the trainer of Uncle Brent.
