Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 6 Journalists Share Posted June 6 What Raconteur Stakes Day Where Belmont Racecourse – Saintly Entrance, Burswood WA 6100 When Saturday, June 1, 2024 First Race 11:59am AWST Visit Dabble The Listed Raconteur Stakes will headline the nine-race card at Belmont Park this Saturday afternoon. With a lot of rain forecast for Thursday and Saturday, it is expected that the track will only worsen from the Soft 6 rating into the Heavy range. The rail will be pushed out to the +8m position for the entire circuit, with the opening race scheduled to jump at 11:59am AWST. Raconteur Stakes Tip: The Boss Lady The Boss Lady will meet Generosity for the second straight start; however, this time around the Michael Lane-trained filly will have a 3.5kg weight swing in her favour to overturn a 1.4-length defeat over 1200m at this track. This daughter of Street Boss should be able to handle a wet track and appears ready to rise to 1400m for the first time in her career. From barrier 12, Chris Parnham will have to try and slot in midfield, and if he does, The Boss Lady can pick up valuable black type in Saturday’s feature event. Raconteur Stakes Race 8 – #9 The Boss Lady (12) 3yo Filly | T: Michael Lane | J: Chris Parnham (54.5kg) +320 with Bet365 Best Bet at Belmont: Twain’s Angel Twain’s Angel will be seeking to keep her undefeated start to her career intact as she lines up for her sixth start. The Sean & Jake Casey-trained filly settled outside the leader and was nursed along into the straight by Madi Derrick before she released the brakes to run away from her rivals to win comfortably. Derrick has been on board for all five starts on this daughter of Toronado, and with her 1.5kg claim, Twain’s Angel will only have to replicate her last start performance to win again. Best Bet Race 5 – #2 Twain’s Angel (7) 3yo Filly | T: Sean & Jake Casey | J: Madi Derrick (a1.5) (59.5kg) +100 with Neds Next Best at Belmont: Berbere Berbere will return from a 40-week spell with the benefit of two 950m trials at Lark Hill, where the Grant & Alana Williams-trained gelding finished in the placings both times. This daughter of Gingerbread Man is undefeated first-up (2:2-0-0) and has a good record on wet tracks (5:2-1-0). With William Pike taking the ride from barrier four, Berbere should be able to settle in the one-one position and peel off the leaders’ heels to let down with a strong finish. Next Best Race 3 – #3 Berbere (4) 4yo Gelding | T: Grant & Alana Williams | J: William Pike (58.5kg) +140 with PlayUp Best Value at Belmont: Becalotti After finishing in the top four and each of her four starts this preparation, Becalotti from the Tiarnna Robertson stable will get conditions to suit her when she rises to 1400m and finds a wet track. This daughter of A Lot has only missed the placings once on a Soft or Heavy track (4:2-1-0) and has a strong record at Belmont (7:2-2-0). Jarrad Noske has been on board for every run this time in and from barrier 12, he should be able to settle outside the leader, and if Becalotti kicks clear with 300m to go, she will prove very hard to run down. Best Value Race 9 – #3 Becalotti (12) 4yo Mare | T: Tiarnna Robertson | J: Jarrad Noske (58.5kg) +850 with Picklebet Saturday quaddie tips for Belmont races Belmont quadrella selections Saturday, June 8, 2024 1-2-5 2-8-10 2-5-8-9-10 1-3-6-9 | Copy this bet straight to your betslip Horse racing tips View the full article Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
