About

Belmont At The Big A R6 Race 6 features Tough Critic, a 3yo dk b/br horse from the United States trained by George Weaver. He is sired by Caravaggio out of the dam Thatchit. The colt has one victory, the most notable being the $90,000 Md at Keeneland on 25 Apr 2025. He has proven a profitable choice for bettors; backing him throughout his career would have generated an 8% return on investment.
