Looking to improve your finances? Instead of hosting an economic summit, you would have been better off wagering on Economic Summit when he broke his maiden by a comfortable length yesterday at Belmont Park. With the victory, Economic Summit joins the New York watch, which profiles up-and-comers that have recently cleared the maiden ranks at Aqueduct, Belmont Park, and Saratoga. Making his second start, Economic Summit tracked the pacesetter in second through a quarter in 23.59, forged to the front with five-sixteenths left to travel, and was chased home in the stretch by Adios Charlie, who finished 7 ¼ lengths ahead of third-place finisher Redeemed. The final time for seven furlongs was 1:23.91. "He's really talented and seems to be advanced for a 2-year-old," said winning jockey Rajiv Maragh of the 5-2 second choice. "He ran seven-eighths yesterday and that definitely wasn't his distance limitation. I'm not sure how far he is going to go, but I'm pretty sure he'll go farther than seven-eighths."
