Timeform's US Racing expert Jake Price is back with his tips for tonight's action Stateside.
Aqueduct is once more playing host to a Belmont Park meet in the guise of ‘Belmont at the Big A’ and today’s pick is TEN CENT TOWN in allowance optional claimer over six furlongs carded as race six.
Two of Ten Cent Town’s four successes have come at the New York track, his latest in January on a muddy track on first start off a claim for Richard Dutrow Jr. He was seen to maximum effect from the front recording steady fractions in the conditions.
Both runs since have seen him produce a pair of third-placed finishes at this venue. He has four lengths to make up on the chalk Locke and Key, the runner-up from his latest run back in March, but the pick comes into this a fresher horse.
However, having looked at the potential pace set-up for this contest, this should suit Ten Cent Town more than the market leader. He’s drawn three and there is pace to his inside, so with a handy position he can hopefully outkick his rivals late on.
