Belmont Notes

Hard Spun
Adam Coglianese/NYRA

– Hard Spun (right) arrived at Belmont this afternoon. He’ll put in his final work for next Saturday’s Belmont Stakes on Sunday or Monday, said trainer Larry Jones.
– Slew’s Tizzy put in his final work for the race, going four furlongs in :49 flat, according to trainer Gregory Fox (NYRA). The Lone Star Derby winner will ship from Lexington on Tuesday.
– Here come the longshots: Let’s see, only five possible starters and a $1 million purse. It’s no wonder the unknown Digger is now a Belmont contender (DRF).
Street Sense has been sold to Darley (ESPN). Hard Spun too (Blood-Horse).
