Really unenthusiastic midweeker for Belmont this week, but the nominations for Saturday look super. Rail goes out the 21m with a cutaway in the straight.

Born To Rule
Loved the most recent trial of Born To Rule in the lead-up to his resumption here. Really let down arrogantly to sweep past them in very slick time. Only lightly-raced, we look back to his form from last prep which reads terrific for this, with names that jump off the page that include All Day Session, Billy Ain’t Silly and Clairvoyance. Should be able to box-seat from the draw here stalking the speed, being out of Universal Ruler should love the slop, and looks the only bet I’m interested in having on the card.
