Comments: Yesterday we made a prophet. Prophit. Profet. Prufert. How is that spelled again? The two non-POOMAs in race 3 at Belmont looked like lobbing the quinella with about 100m to go at $25 and $40 before running 2nd and 3rd. Would have been a fair old result. Today's POOMAs come from one of the surprisingly bad newly introduced systems that was working fine for ages, in line with expectation, until it became a POOMA system. Northam 2-6 Cagey Lady looks pretty well suited here. She had her first run at this trip last time and got home well after being back in the the field from her wide gate. Northam 8-3 Silent Hero is 2/2 at the track and steps up in grade and into an open age field for the first time but he looks a progressive type so should go close. I wouldn't want to take less than $3.50, though.
