Jimbo-- I will be reviewing Belmont day later at the end of this week. As you said, the longer you wait, the more horses run back-- which is bad, but necessary if you are to have info with which to review. When looking at a situation like this (or High Limit, for that matter), it's important to keep in mind there are lots of other horses in those races, and in most cases the surrounding races are relevant as well.
Smokeume had at least 2 big ones in his last 3 whether you thought the 6/11 figure was accurate or not, and I made a 3 horse tri box (hit it), and 2 horse exacta box (didn't).
By the way, given the watering issues and changing track on Belmont Day, almost anything could come from that review, from changing none, to changing just that one, to changing several. I'm also interested in taking a look at the Riva Ridge, where LITF did not get a very good figure.
