Belmont Park Racing Tips Sept 9 — Can Juniper Make It Two?
Belmont Park racing tips for September 9
Juniper has raced once in its life and won by daylight, and today it gets Belmont Park’s most dangerous jockey-trainer partnership to try to make it two from two. W Pike and G & A Williams have combined for 14 winners and 28 minor placings from 42 runners at this track alone — a strike rate few combinations in the state get near — and they’ve paired up on a three-year-old with nothing to prove against. That’s the standout angle on a compact Tuesday card that keeps things simple: three races, all at 1312m on the turf, all done and dusted inside a couple of hours. Belmont Park racing tips don’t get much more concentrated than this, and there’s enough course form, recent trajectory and stable intent across the six- and two sixteen-runner fields to build a genuine view in every one of them. Here’s where the analysis points, race by race.
Reading the Belmont Park form today
Fifty-three of today’s 89 runners carry some recorded history at Belmont Park, but track specialists are almost nonexistent — just three horses across the entire card turn up with three or more runs at the circuit, and not one of them has won here yet. That tells you the jockeys and trainers are doing more of the heavy lifting than the horses’ own CVs today.
| Horse | Runs | Wins | Places | Win% | Place% |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cawarra | 3 | 0 | 2 | 0.00% | 66.67% |
| Call Me Invincible | 3 | 0 | 1 | 0.00% | 33.33% |
| Strut Your Stuff | 3 | 0 | 0 | 0.00% | 0.00% |
That’s the whole list. Cawarra is the one whose form fits the record — she keeps hitting the frame here without going on with it — while Strut Your Stuff has three runs at Belmont Park and nothing to show for any of them, which tells its own story about today’s chances.
W Pike is the number to build around. He’s ridden at Belmont Park 159 times for 53 wins and 94 places — a third of his rides salute and almost six in every ten hit the frame. Chris Parnham and Lucy Fiore are the other jockeys engaged today with a genuine strike rate to back up the numbers.
| Jockey | Runs | Wins | Places | Win% | Place% |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| W Pike | 159 | 53 | 94 | 33.33% | 59.12% |
| Chris Parnham | 95 | 18 | 42 | 18.95% | 44.21% |
| Lucy Fiore | 116 | 17 | 46 | 14.66% | 39.66% |
| Giaan O’Donnell | 15 | 1 | 5 | 6.67% | 33.33% |
| Holly Nottle | 152 | 20 | 47 | 13.16% | 30.92% |
| Natika Riordan | 85 | 5 | 26 | 5.88% | 30.59% |
On the training side, Summer Dickson’s numbers stand out even though her only representative today, She’s Da Val, arrives out of sorts on form: 9 wins from 41 runners at Belmont Park is a 21.95% strike rate most Perth stables would sign for immediately. G & A Williams (20% wins, just under half of all runners placed) and D M Luciani (almost three-quarters of his runners have placed here, from a smaller sample of 11) round out the trainers worth following.
| Trainer | Runs | Wins | Places | Win% | Place% |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Summer Dickson | 41 | 9 | 13 | 21.95% | 31.71% |
| G & A Williams | 95 | 19 | 47 | 20.00% | 49.47% |
| D M Luciani | 11 | 2 | 8 | 18.18% | 72.73% |
| D L Morton | 48 | 8 | 13 | 16.67% | 27.08% |
| Luke Fernie | 48 | 7 | 18 | 14.58% | 37.50% |
| Simon Miller | 79 | 11 | 23 | 13.92% | 29.11% |

Race by race at Belmont Park
Race 1: Afgri Equipment Hcp (C1) — 1:14pm, 1312m
Juniper is the one to build the card around. It’s raced once, at debut, and won — and Belmont Park’s benchmark jockey-trainer combination climbs aboard to try to make it two from two. W Pike and G & A Williams have combined for 14 wins and 28 places from 42 runners specifically at this track, a 33.33% strike rate that dwarfs anything else on offer today, and a stable this sharp doesn’t put its number-one rider on a moderate three-year-old in a winnable six-horse field for nothing. The formline is thin by definition — one run tells you talent, not depth — but the connections’ record at this circuit is deep enough to lean on regardless. Juniper draws barrier two and carries 122.3kg, a workable gate for a Pike ride, and there’s nothing in this field with the weight of that combination behind it.
Cawarra is the danger, and a fair one. Chris Parnham partners N D Parnham again, a combination good for four wins and eleven places from 22 runners at Belmont Park, and the mare has been the model of consistency this prep: five runs, one win, four places, an average finishing position of 2.2. She’s placed in two of her three runs at this track without breaking through, which either means she’s about to or means she just doesn’t quite get there when it matters — the jury’s out, but she’ll be doing little wrong if she runs on for minor money.
Vienna Calling and Spanish Armada round out a competitive small field, but neither carries the connections’ weight of Juniper or the consistency of Cawarra. Win bet on Juniper, with Cawarra covered for the place in an exacta or as the each-way leg of a multi.

Race 2: MC Polytrack Mdn — 1:49pm, 1312m
Sixteen runners and not much of a genuine formline in sight makes this one hard to be confident about. If forced, Official Business gets the nod — Chris Parnham and N D Parnham combine for a 50% placed strike at Belmont Park, and the gelding has already shown he handles the track with a placing from his most recent run here. Wrexham is the each-way alternative: trainer D M Luciani has landed a place with almost three-quarters of his runners at this circuit, and the horse himself has managed places in three of his last five starts, including both his Belmont Park runs. Neither looks the winner type in a maiden this deep, and with sixteen runners spread across the barrier draw, luck in running will decide plenty of finishing positions today. Watch race for the win market, with Official Business and Wrexham the only two worth a place-only interest.
Race 3: Unite Resourcing Mdn — 2:24pm, 1312m
Call Me Invincible grinds; Gunning For Gold is the new kid with upside. Call Me Invincible has had six runs this prep without breaking through but keeps finding minor money — two places from those six starts, and one placing from three visits to Belmont Park — under the connections of N D Parnham and B Parnham, a combination worth 25.81% placed from 124 rides together. That’s the profile of a maiden closing in, and he draws barrier one today with 127.8kg on his back — top weight, but a gate that lets B Parnham dictate where he sits.
Gunning For Gold has raced just once and ran third, and connections have gone straight back to Belmont Park with D L Morton (16.67% wins, 27.08% placed here from 48 runners) and Holly Nottle (13.16% wins, 30.92% placed at the track) both showing real numbers at this circuit. If that debut run wasn’t a fluke, this is the type that can improve sharply second-up, and a soft draw in barrier five gives Nottle options she wouldn’t have from the outside gates.
Another deep sixteen-runner maiden with no standout, but Call Me Invincible’s experience edge and Gunning For Gold’s placing on debut make them the two worth including in exotics. Each-way on Call Me Invincible, save only on Gunning For Gold.
Where the money goes
NAP: Juniper, Race 1 (1:14pm). One start, one win, and now Belmont Park’s most dangerous jockey-trainer pairing goes to work in W Pike and G & A Williams — 14 wins and 28 places from 42 runners at this circuit, a number no other combination on the card gets close to.
Value: Wrexham, Race 2 (1:49pm). Buried in a 16-horse maiden field, but trainer D M Luciani places almost three in every four runners he sends to Belmont Park, and Wrexham has already banked two course placings of his own. Each-way interest looks generous in a field this deep.
Banker: Cawarra, Race 1 (1:14pm). Five runs this prep, four placings, an average finish of 2.2 — about as close to a guaranteed frame finisher as this card produces. Worth the place leg of any multi.
Each-way: Call Me Invincible, Race 3 (2:24pm). Two places from six runs this prep and a course placing to his name, running for a stable that’s found the frame with a quarter of its runners at Belmont Park lately.
Course angle: W Pike aboard anything for G & A Williams. Forty-two runners, fourteen winners, twenty-eight placegetters — that partnership is the standing angle at Belmont Park no matter what meeting rolls around next, and today it’s attached to the best horse on the card.
If Williams keeps sending his sharpest north with Pike in the saddle, he’ll be the Belmont Park angle worth following every time the gates open here.
