smarty was not born to win the belmont, and he didn't get the perfect ride that he needed in the belmont. He was too sharp , Elliot was too eager.

Brown is bred better than most of these for 12furlongs, he has the best jockey in the world and a high powered trainer. Doesn't mean he can't lose, but he has the advantage over Smarty Jones.
