Sue he lost a chunk of his foot out the gate at Belmont and failed to win the Triple Crown but something always goes wrong at Belmont... dont it?

He will win horse of the year. Mark it down... its really not debatable. unless you want to minimize the validity of the triple crown season. because thats what your doing in saying he wont win it. no other horse has totally jumped off the page which I believe you gotta do if you are gonna over take a horse that wins 2 of the 3 triple crown races

on a side not using the law of averages snce we got 2 derby favs as winnes the past 2 years... think maybe we get a bomb this year? all handicapping out the window just working off of the law of averages.... Just Saying...
I think most of us will be grateful for the "ignore" button if he does somehow manage to pull it off.

By the way, are you missing some fingers?
