DT, I'm not as excited over CC as you are, but I agree that it would make the front pages of ALL the Sport pages if he pulls it off. The way I see it, I've seen better ones than CC fail at pulling out the Triple Crown and that's why I'm not too anxious to see him do it. Actually, there's quite a few. I'm looking forward to see who you come up with.
Steffi, GREAT to see somebody who joined MJ's recently stop in the "Horse Palace".
Thanks for your visit and Good Luck to you whatever you're up to.
The Belmont? Well,
obviously this year's 3 yr. old crop got me pretty confused. There's is one race that I KNOW I'm well ahead of over all the times I've bet it and that is the Belmont Stakes. This year's edition is gonna really be a challenge though. The only predictability I've seen from those that qualify is that thems are gonna get their DRAWERS blown off by CC and I just don't believe he's a great one.
BTW, I thought the same about Secretariat... until AFTER betting against him in the Belmont. :chairshot I was pretty much a rookie at hoss wacin then.
Everytime he ran after that monster race, I just watched cause his odds were terrible. Then he ran on the turf for the first time and you better believe he faced some absolutely GREAT turf runners in a large field at Belmont (pretty sure it wasn't at the Big A) and I was at the track. I got all my Belmont money back and then some that day cause he paid something very close to $5 to Win. May have been $5.20; that was a long time ago.
