    Rocket Picks ��: Churchill Downs, Santa Anita, and Belmont Park for June 11, 2022
    By: Aaron Halterman

    It’s Belmont Stakes Day! The Triple Crown comes to an end today, so let’s send it out in style. For the free pick 4, we will head to Belmont Park for the late MIDDLE Pick 4 on the card. We will also have full card selections for Santa Anita and Churchill Downs for the paid Rockets, so be sure to check those out. Let’s go!

    Below is our free middle Pick 4 for Belmont Park:

    Belmont Park June 11, 2022

    Race 4: Just A Game Stakes (G1)

    #3 Speak of the Devil might have been the single most impressive horse at Churchill Downs over the Kentucky Derby weekend. She made short work of the Churchill Downs Distaff Mile Stakes, swooping from last and winning in stylish fashion by almost 3 lengths. #2 Regal Glory has been brilliant in 2 starts this year, winning the Pegasus Filly and Mare Turf before taking home the Jenny Wiley Stakes at Keeneland last time out.

    Race 5: Brooklyn Stakes (G2)

    #7 Fearless should be tough in this spot if he liked the extended distance. #1 Lone Rock is the best horse in the country at this distance, which obviously makes him the one to beat.

    Race 6: Woody Stephens Stakes (G1)

    #1 Jack Christopher was back in action last time out, making his first start as a 3-year-old, looking nearly exactly like he did as a 2-year-old. He should run even better today, with this being his second start off of the layoff, while 7-furlongs should suit him perfectly. #3 Wit came back a winner last time out in the Bay Shore Stakes, and should move forward off of that effort if he continues to break well from the gate.

    Race 7: Ogden Phipps Stakes (G1)

    #1 Letruska is back to win her second straight Ogden Phipps. She continues to be a win machine after kicking off her season with 2 easy victories, including the Apple Blossom Handicap at Oaklawn Park last time out. #3 Malathaat looked great in her 4-year-old debut last time out and should be set up well for this race.

      Belmont Park Picks: Pick 6 Pool the target on Belmont Stakes Day
      By J.N. Campbell


      Belmont Stakes Day Picks - Saturday, June 11, 2022

      Race 1: 6-2-7-4
      Race 2: 3-1/1A-7-6
      Race 3: 4-5-2-1
      Race 4: 2-3-4-1
      Race 5: 3-1-2-5
      Race 6: 1-3-6-4
      Race 7: 1-5-3-4
      Race 8: 8-6-5-4
      Race 9: 2-1-3-4
      Race 10: 8-4-2-1
      Race 11: 1-3-4-8
      Race 12: 8-4-7-12
      Race 13: 5-4-12-3
      **Most Likely: We The People #1 (Race 11)**
      **Best Value: Scuttlebuzz #8 (Race 8)**

      All-STAKES PICK 6 …

      LEG 1: (Race 6: Dirt, 7F, Woody Stephens S. (G1), $400k, 3)

      There is nothing more gratifying than handicapping a card that is loaded … top to bottom … with Grade 1 races. This is one of the best wagering opportunities outside of the Breeders’ Cup, and it is time to reap the benefits of what heralds a massive pool. Playing the Pick 6 on Belmont Stakes Day, in others words, is a must. As we commence the ‘capping, this G1 has a small field, but it has a major player in Chad Brown’s Jack Christopher #1. The Munnings colt is a “deserving favorite” after he won impressively on the KYD148 undercard at Churchill Downs. That was significant because it was his ’22 debut … not seen since this past fall due to an injury. Missing the BC Juvenile (G1) and the entire Derby Trail was a disappointment, but he is on the rise now. I do not see anyone that can match his talent, and that includes Todd Pletcher’s Wit #3. Brown is on a hot streak right now, and when that happens, he can be very difficult to beat. Jose Ortiz was aboard last year, piloted “Jack” in the Pat Day, and will handle the duties in the “Woody.” I think this is a “Single” without question.

      Selections: 1 (Single)



      LEG 2: (Race 7: Dirt, 1 1/16th, Ogden Phipps S. (G1), $500k, F&M 4+)

      Debaters, pundits, and the lot could make a strong case for the “Phipps” being the toughest race to handicap on the entire Belmont card. You literally could make a strong case for any of these runners. Of course, when it comes to a top selection, I am partial to Fausto Gutierrez’s Super Saver mare, Letruska #1. The “Queen of the Track,” just continues her march towards what amounts to a HOF career. She came back after an Eclipse Award-winning year in ’21, and has already won a pair of races … namely the Apple Blossom (G1) @OP. Jose Ortiz is riding well, and he understands the assignment here: make the lead and control the pace. I think if this 6-yr-old can keep rivals like Todd Pletcher’s Malathaat #3 and Chad Brown’s Search Results #5 at bay, then she has a chance to outlast them all. Gutierrez has managed his top runner’s work tab well, and that is why I think she is a “Single.” This is her race …

      Selections: 1 (Single)



      LEG 3: (Race 8: Turf, 6F, Jaipur S. (G1), $400k, 3+)

      Here is another mountain to climb, but not in the same way as the previous race. Picking a turf sprint winner is like trying to find a microscopic needle in a haystack the size of Everest. But … we will try … This year’s Jaipur S. has a myriad of storylines. Bill Mott’s Casa Creed #4, the defending champ, returns to the U.S. after doing some classy running in Saudi Arabia and Dubai. Regular rider Luis Saez gets the call once again, and this son of Jimmy Creed is going to be slammed at the windows. I doubt that he will be 9/2 when this one goes off. Using him is a must though … he can win. When it comes to my top selection, I am pretty interested in a pair of longer-priced entries. It doesn’t seem like Paulo Lobo’s Greyes Creek #6 is in very good form, but I like his potential odds (which could be as high as 30/1). Ridden by Tyler Gaffalione, who comes to ride from Churchill, the former Chad Brown barnmember could be heard from late in the game. Count on double-digit odds for sure … The other horse that is a rising star is Rudy Rodriguez's Scuttlebuzz #8. Javier Castellano is riding on the grass in sprints particularly well right now. This son of The Factor won the Elusive Quality S. $100k last out, and he clearly likes this turf course. If I could get 6/1, then that constitutes a square price in my book. Others that I want to include on this ticket include, Wesley Ward’s Arrest Me Red #5, Mark Casse’s Filo Di Arianna #9, and Phil D’Amato’s Gregorian Chant #13. What a race this one is going to be … hoping for a juicy boxcar price that will elicit the famous phrase … Bombs away!

      Selections: 4/5/6/8/9/13 (6-Deep)



      LEG 4: (Race 9: Dirt, Mile, Metropolitan H. (G1), $1 million, 3+)

      The titan match-up of the entire weekend is not in the Phipps or even the Belmont Stakes. This year’s Met Mile (G1) is like an Ali-Frazier … McEnroe-Borg … Bird-Magic … moment! We have Bill Mott’s steady-Eddie, Speaker’s Corner #2 going up against the young, inexperienced speed demon trained by John Sadler named Flightline #1. Certainly, the presence of BC Sprint Champion Aloha West #3 should be duly noted, but it is Mott v. Sadler that is going to move the turnstiles, and raise the binoculars. It makes sense to include both of these players, since either has the ability to win this $1M contest. My head bob though goes to Mott’s son of Street Sense. He is a much more seasoned professional than his rival, and Junior Alvarado knows how to manage his speed. Not only can he match wits with Sadler’s ace, but I like very much how he can sustain his speed. Maintaining an energy, marshalling even more when it counts … that is the mark of a versatile runner. The odds will be particularly interesting to watch … my guess is that Flightline, a well-bred son of Tapit, will be the race time favorite, hovering around 4/5. What a match race, with no disrespect meant for the other competitors.

      Selections: 1/2 (2-Deep)



      LEG 5: (Race 10: Turf, 1

        TV Time: NBC, 5:00 p.m. ET
        Race: 13
        Distance-Length: Dirt, 1 1/2 Miles

        Belmont Stakes Picks
        IF I'M RIGHT...

        (3) Nest
        (6) Mo Donegal
        (1) We The People

        SUGGESTED BETS..

        EXACTA 3 over 1, 6, 8
        TRIFECTA BOX 1, 3, 6, 8

        1) WE THE PEOPLE (2-1)

        Jockey: FLAVIEN PRAT (Belmont Wins: 0)
        Trainer: RODOLPHE BRISSET (Belmont Wins: 0)

        PROS

        Won the local prep for this race in gate to wire fashion for his third win from just four career starts with his lone defeat coming when unable to control the pace. He appears to be the quickest of this field early and worked sharply over the track last weekend so a clean break from this inside post should once again allow him to dictate the tempo of the race. When he’s on his game he has shown that he just keeps on running.

        CONS

        Like all of today’s Belmont Stakes runners he has yet to try this 12 furlong distance so maybe that unknown is a bit of a chink in his armor and his big effort in the Peter Pan came over a wet/sealed racetrack that could very well have played a big factor in the outcome. Set as the morning line favorite he is certainly going to take plenty of wagering support.
        2) SKIPPYLONGSTOCKING (20-1)

        Jockey: MANNY FRANCO (Belmont Wins: 1)
        Trainer: SAFFIE JOSEPH, JR. (Belmont Wins: 0)

        PROS

        Wasn’t very far off of a couple of today’s rivals when competing in high quality spots this spring. His off the pace style suggests that he’ll appreciate the stretch out in distance. His speed figures have been on the improve of late and he’s the longest shot on the board so his backers will be rewarded if he’s able to clunk up late and surprise.

        CONS

        He has yet to run as fast as several of the contenders and he hasn’t won above the preliminary allowance condition. He will need to run the race of his life in his 11th career start to prove any type of factor.
        3) NEST (8-1)

        Jockey: JOSE ORTIZ (Belmont Wins: 1)
        Trainer: TODD PLETCHER (Belmont Wins: 3)

        PROS

        Filly has been quite good against her own sex this year, running a big second most recently to Secret Oath in the Kentucky Oaks early last month. She boasts a running style that fits the traditional winning profile of this race as she is tactical enough to secure a spot within a few lengths of the leaders early and her pedigree suggests this increased distance will be right up her alley. She broke her maiden impressively first time out over this track. He trainer was the last to saddle a female Belmont Stakes winner in 2007 with Rags to Riches.

        CONS

        While she’s been very good in doing what she’s been asked against her own sex, she’s still a bit slow on the figure scale compared to some of the runners she’s going to face in here and will need to take a step forward.
        4) RICH STRIKE (7-2)

        Jockey: SONNY LEON (Belmont Wins: 0)
        Trainer: ERIC REED (Belmont Wins: 0)

        PROS

        Took a huge step forward at a distance he figured to love in Kentucky, earning a speed figure far and away above anything he’d run before. He wants to run all day which suits him well here and the way he’s been working since the big Kentucky Derby upset suggests he may well be able to position himself a lot closer to the front runners today. The extra time off garnered by skipping the Preakness Stakes has him entering the Test of the Champion as a fresh colt, similar to the break he had prior to taking the first jewel of the Triple Crown.

        CONS

        Horses are rarely effective attempting to rally from well out of it in this race and he did get a torrid early pace in front of him last time which won’t be the case again today. While he’s shown he’s more than capable of taking advantage and picking up the pieces the longer he goes, he’s going to have to earn the repeat under less favorable conditions.

        5) CREATIVE MINISTER (6-1)

        Jockey: BRIAN HERNANDEZ, JR. (Belmont Wins: 0)
        Trainer: KENNETH MCPEEK (Belmont Wins: 1)

        PROS

        Enters this on the improved following a solid third place finish in the Preakness stakes behind a couple of runners who do not return today. He’s gotten better as the distances have increased and could well take to today’s added ground. Gray colt is tactical enough to track the likely pacesetter We the People and that could give him the important advantage of getting first run on the latecomers.

        CONS

        He does return just 3 weeks off the fastest effort of his brief career and maybe that’s enough to keep him from offering his best at the 12 furlong marathon he’ll attempt here.
        6) MO DONEGAL (5-2)

        Jockey: IRAD ORTIZ, JR. (Belmont Wins: 1)
        Trainer: TODD PLETCHER (Belmont Wins: 3)

        PROS

        He got off to a slow start from the inside draw in the Kentucky Derby and was quickly buried, but he showed a lot of run to pass a bunch of horses and was getting closer as the wire approached. Expect he’ll be able to sit a much better trip in this smaller field and the added ground appears as if it will pose little trouble. Returning to his base should help as well as he did break his maiden over this track last fall. Bypassing the Preakness Stakes, he’s had plenty of time to recover from the 2 fastest races of his career. His late kick may prove to be the one they will all have to fear late.

        CONS

        Brings an attractive package to the gate but the one thing that could potentially impact him is the lack of pace in front of him.
        7) GOLDEN GLIDER (20-1)

        Jockey: DYLAN DAVIS (Belmont Wins: 0)
        Trainer: MARK CASSE (Belmont Wins: 1)

        PROS

        He ran a decent second when well behind rival We the People in the Peter Pan here last month. Colt does possess some tactical foot and maybe that helps him sit a decent spot close to the pace early.

        CONS

        He has yet to run particularly fast and will need to improve significantly to have a say in the outcome at a likely big price here.
        8) BARBER ROAD (10-1)

        Jockey: JOHN ORTIZ (Belmont Wins: 2)
        Trainer: JOEL ROSARIO (Belmont Wins: 0)

        PROS

        He was far from disgraced while taking the long way around the oval when last sighted in the Kentucky Derby and now he’ll have his blinkers removed. He’s been improving from a speed figure standpoint and though he’s yet to win a stake, he has picked up a handful of minor awards in stakes heats, including one in the Arkansas Derby. He gets a huge rider switch to Joel Rosario and the price will be very right.

        CONS

        The equipment change doesn’t usually spur an increase in early interest and that’s what this guy will need to show today. He’s another who hasn’t run very fast.

          BROWER IN THE BIKE – JUNE 11

          By Dave Brower, Meadowlands Handicapper — Early Double Analysis — June 11, 2022

          Race 1

          1 OUR THIRD ROCK – He’s had several tries here, with only one good one that I can see. I also see that record the past two seasons. So, don’t even think of putting him on top. Maybe underneath, because he drew rail with John C.

          2 BRONSONS DELIGHT – Looks like the one to beat tonight. He was good again, from an impossible spot last week. The post relief is immense and hopefully, he’ll be better than he was on May 28. If so, he should finally get a win here.

          3 BYTHEWAY HANOVER – As totally expected, he went from awesome to empty again. Talk abought a nightmare for the bettors! How do you figure out this horse? Simply put, you can’t. You just have to guess. Very inconsistent.

          4 TEXICAN N – 14YO warhorse goes to the gate for former colleague Danny Figs!!! Nice to see him take a shot and hop in the sulky here. For wagering purposes, I do think his horst will be hard-pressed to make an impact. You never know.

          5 SUNSHINE’S FINEST – IF you don’t like #2, this is a decent alternative. Poor horse and pilot haven’t had anything go their way in a long time. So, they are long overdue and this could be the spot, from the ideal midpack post. Must use.

          6 BRAZEN BRAZILIAN – Really don’t know what to do with this guy tonight. He’s had some races in the past that would put him right there, but is he sharp now? It’s a legitimate question. That Yonkers line looks awful. Needs bounce back.

          7 MV OK PALACIO BR – Here’s another viable closing threat, but I tend to stay away from the big-time closers while it’s still daylight out. The races go so much faster. It’s hard for them to make up ground. Will just hope they mix it up.

          8 COLD DECKED – Managed to pick up a check from post 10 last week, so that’s a good thing. But, this post isn’t all that better! There are plenty of other closers in here, and they drew inside the Deck. That doesn’t help.

          9 WAVES OF FIRE A – Yarock takes over on this veteran, and he’s going to look this field over and know that he HAS to leave. He won’t be sweeping these from last. So, might as well take a shot and send. Maybe get a trip after that?

          DRIVER CHOICES: None

          Top Contenders 2-5-9-7

          Race 2

          1 ALL ABOUT THE HUNT – Nice colt here! One of two sons of Huntsville for the Burke Brigade. Did not race at two, so he probably was immature or not ready. The progression in qualifiers has been strong. He looks ready to me now! Stevie Smith with a Burke pickup! He has driven winners for this barn before.

          2 CAPTAINGIDDYUPNGO – Did a decent job of chasing #1 in that last qualifier, but I didn’t see him as a true match on that particular morning. Of course, races at night can be a lot different. Gets a better post. Tony a birthday boy this wk.

          3 STONEBRIDGE REEF – This will probably be the favorite, and I can’t argue with that. He’s race ready, with three starts under his belt already. That field on May 21was WAY too tough. This is more like it. Decent speed at Philly.

          4 RIVER NESS – Tossed in a clunker against #3 last month, but something probably wasn’t right. Not sure what happened in first qualifier, but he looked much better in the second. I guess I’ll take a good long look at him on track.

          5 GOTAFOOLISHDESIRE – Looks like the longshot in here that appears overmatched. He will have tough time vs. these.

          6 GROOVY MAN – Perhaps the key to the race? Because he’s got some good early speed. He’s also by Huntsville, so let’s call this the Huntsville Open! Will just need to find a little more mile track stamina. Pilot will make that happen.

          DRIVER CHOICES: None

          Top Contenders 3-1-6-2

            2022 Belmont Stakes Cheatsheet
            By TwinSpires Editorial Team, Sponsored Content

            By Vance Hanson (TwinSpires)

            1. WE THE PEOPLE (2-1) – Triple Crown series newcomer was made the early favorite for this based not only because of his emphatic victory in the Peter Pan (G3), but also the possibility he might reproduce that favorable trip (even going an extra three furlongs) as the potential lone speed from an inside draw; late-developer was so well thought of that connections tossed him in the Arkansas Derby (G1) third out, and he might have made a bigger impact against that group if he not gotten worked up so much in the preliminaries; his form has otherwise been excellent; unless the slop flattered him last out and/or more pressure is applied him, he looks the one they’ll have to reel in.

            2. SKIPPYLONGSTOCKING (20-1) – Mo Donegal and Early Voting in their own ways flattered their Wood Memorial (G2) form, but this colt didn’t take much of a step forward at all in the Preakness (G1), finishing farther behind Early Voting than he had at Aqueduct; fairly well-exposed at this point with 10 starts behind him, he’ll naturally have to improve significantly to make an impact against these as one of the field’s longest prices.

            3. NEST (8-1) – Barn knows what it takes to beat the boys in this race as they sent out Rags to Riches to edge Curlin in this back in 2007, ending a century-long drought for fillies; the difference is that Rags to Riches won the Kentucky Oaks (G1) decisively and her effort compared favorably with those of the first two legs of that year’s Triple Crown; this daughter of Curlin lost the Oaks and was simply second best that day, and this year’s edition wasn’t as fast (Secret Oath subsequently lost the Preakness by a fair margin); those are the obstacles this filly will have to overcome, though connections certainly feel she’ll give a good account; has several lengths to find, though, and best case scenario might be equaling the effort of My Flag, who ran third in 1996.

            4. RICH STRIKE (7-2) – Produced the biggest upset in modern Kentucky Derby (G1) history with a ground-saving run from the back, aided in part by a ridiculously fast pace unlikely to be replicated here; purposely sidestepped the Preakness to aim for this, and connections have long emphasized his preference for gaps between starts, so we should have a horse ready to run to his ability again; what that really is and will be is a bit hard to say as that effort five weeks ago was such an outlier; he might simply be a lover of Churchill – both his wins have been there; the misconception that since this race is so long that it must be favorable to deep closers is generally a false one, so circumstances are sure to be more challenging for him at a far, far shorter price this time.

            5. CREATIVE MINISTER (6-1) – Continues to be asked a lot at such an early point in his career, but since debuting three months ago he’s accepted the challenges well; interestingly the only horse in the field to have competed on both the Derby and Preakness cards, he earned a $150,000 supplement to the Preakness after an impressive allowance in Louisville; he got his money back when third best behind Early Voting and Epicenter, a good showing considering his relative lack of experience; wouldn’t put it past him running another good one as he’s handled the *****s of frequent competition so far, and barn had success in this race 20 years ago.

            6. MO DONEGAL (5-2) – A slow start and the decision to take him wide for the stretch run cost him in the Derby as Rich Strike, who raced alongside him a good deal early, saved much more ground when making his winning rally; Essential Quality last year and several other Derby alumni recently have won the Belmont after skipping the Preakness, including Pletcher trainees Palace Malice and Tapwrit; his Wood Memorial win was flattered by Early Voting’s score at Pimlico, and he was an obvious go-to Belmont horse to latch on to after his run at Churchill; perhaps will be a touch overbet as he wasn’t, unlike Essential Quality, arguably best at Churchill, but otherwise a logical candidate.

            7. GOLDEN GLIDER (20-1) – Relative class was pretty much determined from his prep runs at Tampa and Keeneland – this wasn’t a potential Kentucky Derby upsetter (though the same was said about Rich Strike!); at least his run in the Peter Pan resulted in a better placing, but again he wasn’t in the same league as the winner, and he just barely scraped home second best in a photo; must improve a number of lengths still to have a chance in this deeper spot.

            8. BARBER ROAD (10-1) – Earned a reputation over the winter as a hard-knocking type who was fairly reliable at getting a piece of the purse at nice odds; the Oaklawn road to the Kentucky Derby was not highly rated, however, thus his huge price at Churchill Downs; but even there he lived up to his reputation with a better-than-expected sixth-place finish; surely the pace meltdown helped contribute to that, and as noted that pace scenario will be virtually impossible to recreate here; shades come off, and as usual he’s best used underneath in vertical exotics rather than as a win prospect.

              Piassek's Plays: Tempting Trio for Belmont Stakes Day
              by John Piassek

              Belmont Park, Race 5, $400,000 Brooklyn Stakes, post time 1:47 p.m. ET

              #1 Lone Rock: A field of seven older horses will race 1 1/2 miles on the dirt main track in this one. Lone Rock has established himself as the country's top long-distance horse over the past year. One of his most high-profile wins came in last year's Brooklyn, when he won by 11 lengths in a dominant performance. Since then, he's won five stakes races, with four of them coming at 1 1/2 miles or longer. He has lots of early speed and a perfect draw for his running style. If he breaks cleanly, he can protect rail position and open up a long, lonely lead. From there, he'll coast to another Brooklyn Stakes win.

              #1 We the People: This year's "Test of the Champion" drew a field of eight as we bring down the curtain on this year's Triple Crown series. We the People attracted plenty of buzz after his last start, when he won the Peter Pan Stakes by 10 1/4 lengths in a dominant gate-to-wire effort. Some have said that he won't get as easy a trip in the Belmont; however, I'm not sure that's the case. There's no one else in here who has much early speed. As such, We the People should be able to get to the front and set a very leisurely early pace. If he can turn down the fractions enough, no one will be able to catch up and he'll cruise down the stretch. He's the slight morning-line favorite, so I'm not expecting a great price on him. However, I see him as the most likely winner and I'm anticipating a repeat of his Peter Pan performance.

              #4 Shamalamadingdong: The finale on the card is a New York-bred allowance race at six furlongs on the grass. Nine of the 12 horses in the main body of the field have already lost a race at this level, and only one has both won on grass and never lost against winners. That's Shamalamadingdong, who races for Christophe Clement and Joel Rosario. She broke her maiden in her second career grass start and first start of the year last out, stalking the pace and drawing off to win handily. She's shown great tactical speed and has lots of room for improvement in the second start of her 3-year-old season. At a 6-1 morning line, she's very likely to make a great bet.
