I'm not betting Fabulous Strike at the even money he will be at. Its not so much the distance, its more that I like Driven by Success and think this is a great spot for him. With regards to Fabulous Strike, he is 0 for 3 at the distance, but look at 2 of his losses and how close they were. He lost the Carter by a nose. Dont be so fooled into thinking Fabulous Strike cant win at 7F, I think he can. Its just a matter of time. He really has only had 3 shots at it. To me he has a much better shot at this win than Munnings. But I will root for and bet Driven by Success if the price is right and I survive all the races prior to Sunday, beginning with Friday.
Going to be a real nice weekend of racing at Belmont, and Monmouth too.
