So it's Belmont Time and Triple Crown Fever Again, lets talk
 
Justify what you say, please. Is it his race to lose? Me thinks so but who might really have a chance and pull the upset? And don't forget double wallet and double points to the points getters :D

Justify 4-5 odds at Belmont? Hope it changes for the betters/bridge jumpers. What was AP's ML odds? And wouldn't you know rain forcast at Bel for Saturday high. 74 low 62. Fri and Sun partly sunny and last week Sat was forcast clear. Are the racing gods betting on this race or what?

Since Justify drew the #1 Post, doesn't it seem likely that Mike will try to break on top and use Justify's speed to control the pace? If he does that, who in this field can run with him? Noble Indy does have some early speed, and might feel forced to contest the pace to keep Justify from having too easy a time of it up front.

Smith will float as far out as he can into the clubhouse turn. If anyone tries to go with him, he will put them in Guam.

Other than a Breeders' Cup, I can't remember a card of racing with this consistent quality. The NYRA Racing Secretary has outdone himself. If this isn't horseplayer heaven, I don't know what is.:tro:
