Veteran stakes-winners comprise salty G3 Vagrancy field

At 0h12, on May 6, 2021 By BELMONT PARK

A field of seven fillies and mares 4-years-old and up will look to boost their respective stakes-winning resumes in Saturday’s Grade 3, $150,000 Vagrancy contested at 6 1/2 furlongs on the main track at Belmont Park.

Six of the field’s entrants have already earned a stakes victory, including Tommy Town Thoroughbreds’ Victim of Love, who won last year’s Vagrancy edition by besting Come Dancing by 1 3/4 lengths before running third in the Grade 1 Ballerina in August at Saratoga Race Course.

Trainer Todd Beattie gave Victim of Love a six-month break, and the now 5-year-old Speightstown mare responded by running second in her 2021 debut going six furlongs against optional claimers in February at Laurel Park.

Victim of Love, whose only previous Belmont start came in the Vagrancy, will look to go 2-for-2 in the prestigious race for older filles and mares, breaking from post 3 in tandem with Joel Rosario.
