do you think he's here for the beautiful NYC scenery? the derby gets all the hype but the belmont is the test of champions for a reason. horseman have been aiming for this one race for a long time. if woody were around you could ask him about it. not saying hes going to win, because hes never raced in competition like this. but other than BB what competition is there ? put it this way it won't be some huge upset if he does win. this is a nice horse and he doesn't have to be that great to beat this bunch.
