Four of these allowance/optional claiming fillies could win this 7F turf test. Of those four, 3YO Wholelottashakin (5-2) is the most probable winner. Her performance figures aren't tops but they are competitive, she comes into this off a Turf Decline Line and, most significantly, both of her lifetime wins have come on Belmont turf.
Taking Wholelottashakin to win at 2-1 or greater and keying her first and second in exactas with Paraiba (8-1) and Karakorum Electra (7-2).

As the race is off the turf, presumably, there will be a wholelotta scratches goin’ on, which means 12-Fiftyfour Forever will go, and will be the main rival.
When the track is sticky and wet,
that’s no time to make a bet,
but when the track is firm or dry
be a man; let the money fly.
You mentioned purse money. What happened to all those casino dollars I heard tell about, and how the Cross Island was going to be paved with gold once they got those slot machines in. Pathetic! Meanwhile, we still don’t have Trakus, a round of drinks cost $50.00, and the echo is terrible in the grandstands.
7-Wholelottashakin (7.25)
12-Fiftyfour Forever (8.49)
10-Great Gracie Dane (9.47)
Worried Wholelottashakin may do a wholelottastoppin based on pace factors today.
Therefore, Dominguez may be the way to go. Who knows, who care, when it’s wet, it’s hard for me to bet.
