I've been back and forth since the Preakness about what the final decision should be. As a traditionalist, natural competitor and recent "jumper" on the Street Sense bandwagon I wanted him to go. However as a realist, I agree with the decision. I hope nothing "goofy" happens over the next few months that would change Nafgers plans with SS. I haven't been to the Travers in several years, but if he goes I'm there. Let's face it no matter who runs in the Belmont....Will we watch? Yes Will we have Belmont parties? Most of Us....Will we bet the Shiat out of the undercard...Yep.....Will there be a Triple Crown winner this year? Nope.....Have we had some entertaining, informative, interesting debate along the way? You betcha....Let's line them all up on June 9th and have a great time!!
