Belmont and Gulfstream opinions for Wednesday, July 1

BELMONT PARK

Race 4: #8 Mohawk Lily (4-1) ****

Was favored last time, but finished fourth. Comes back after pressing the pace, jockey John Velazquez should have a better feel here.

==       

Race 8: #2 Regardez (3-1)

Was favored in U.S. debut, but finished fourth and now comes back for trainer Chad Brown. Looks like wants to come from just off pace and should like the added distance.
