It was God who said that he should be 4 wide the whole way around the track?

Kent just said that he just didn't have any horse left at the turn for home. No problems with the leg, just that the horse just didn't have it today.

I know, It didn't help but that is not why he lost. but this was the first time that encountered a little trouble. He looked very uncomfortable out of the gate.

Coa made Brown go so wide on the backstretch.
Not that it was the excuse. He clearly knew who
he was going to push out.

That is the most painful loss anyone will ever suffer. Couldn't have happened to a nicer group of people.

I'll bet the Casino Drive folks are devastated again after seeing today's race.

Of course, absolutely NO ONE talked about Da'Tara before the race. Wow. Even without BB, he was much above the rest - WIRING the field in the Belmont? Never saw that one coming. Even though I didn't really want BB to win the Triple Crown, this was shocking.
