Belmont Derby Saturday

Looks like Billy Mott will be taking over the trainer duties for Bob Baffert with #5 Du Jour in this million dollar race.

Baffert's wife also owns this colt.

Aiden O’Brien ships Bolshoi Ballet in from across the pond

 Jockey for Bolshoi Ballet, Ryan Moore, just walked the Belmont turf track to familiarize himself with the footing.

Interesting note on HARD LOVE from his debut last year:

Fwiw, I'm surprised CELLIST is listed @ 12/1. Nice horse.

Regarding DU JOUR, it must be noted that he won on the Kentucky Derby undercard for Baffert. It wouldn't be too outlandish to suggest that he might've received the same kind of help that MEDINA SPIRIT did that day. Something worth pondering if you like him in this race.
