I can't recall where I posted HS should/would/could have won the race. I didn't think he had a chance that day and didn't bet him.. I thought (correctly) it was a race between Rags2Riches and Curlin.
I never really had too much respect for that colt(HS).. but had to acknowledge his efforts in the Derby, Kings Bishop and BCC were all very good.
I do agree that the scenario presented for the Belmont was he best chance of winning... not that it meant he would have won anyway.
Now, please expound on the benefits of Trackus again for us...
