Our Belmont Park best bet and value play

Best bet: Nitrogen (1-9) in Race 2. The 1-9 morning-line favorite, so the track handicapper rates this horse as the one to beat. Jose Ortiz has won 5 of 12 rides (42%) at New York tracks in our records. Race 2 picks and odds

Value play of the day: Dream Chick (50-1) in Race 3. At 50-1 on the morning line, the price is bigger than this horse’s connections suggest.
