Blended Citizen just cruises in half-mile work for Belmont Stakes

Peter Pan Stakes winner Blended Citizen looked like he was just galloping, but went a half-mile in 47.61 seconds over Belmont's main track in preparation for a start in the Belmont Stakes on June 9.

Blended Citizen was the second horse to breeze after the track opened up at 5:30 a.m.

On my watch, Blended Citizen went his first quarter in 24.08 seconds and his second in 23.53 with the rider barely moving on him. I caught him galloping out five furlongs in 1:00.61 and six furlongs in 1:14.90.

If nothing else, the work shows that Blended Citizen has come out of his Peter Pan victory in good shape.
