It’s Saturday at Belmont at the Big A, and we’ve got a deep card with a mix of Maiden Specials, Allowance races, and a Stakes feature in Race 10. Using the Double Dutch System (1 horse – Win & Place), here’s how the Raymond Report lines them up:
Race 1 – $80,000 MSW (7 Furlongs Dirt – 1:10 PM)
Double Dutch Play:(5) Thirsted – 10/1 Early value shot. At 10/1 with R. Silvera aboard, Thirsted is the kind of overlooked DD play that can put you ahead before lunch.
Double Dutch Play:(6) Tizmarkus – 5/2 Strong morning-line favorite with Santana Jr. up. Reliable grinder in a small field—ideal DD anchor.
Race 3 – $43,000 Claiming (1 Mile Dirt – 2:08 PM)
Double Dutch Play:(5) Leading Contender – 3/1 A horse living up to his name. Expect him in the mix late. DD system says: trust the steady stalker.
Race 4 – $85,000 MSW (6 Furlongs Turf – 2:37 PM)
Double Dutch Play:(3) B Raging On – 10/1 Turf debut can be tricky, but value dictates the play. If he even hits the board, the DD system cashes nicely.
Race 5 – $31,000 Claiming (1 Mile Dirt – 3:09 PM)
Double Dutch Play:(5) Brave Bear – 8/1 At 8/1, this bear could maul the board. Strong DD value runner in a wide-open field.
Race 6 – $85,000 MSW (6½ Furlongs Dirt – 3:41 PM)
Double Dutch Play:(5) Dream Machine – 8/1 Appropriate name for a Double Dutch horse—if he wakes up today, you’re cashing tickets.
Double Dutch Play:(11) Union Express – 15/1 We close the card with another bomb. If Union Express can fire late, you’ll end the day cashing DD money.
