Again, I don't think that correlates to the quality of the field. The main attraction is going to be sorely missed and will impact attendance, handle, etc. My point is that the other horses are still (at least 4-5) talented horses with bright futures.

bright futures is the polite way of saying "hasn't done anything yet"

the race is tomorrow so hopefully the bright future is 24 hours away....imo the field is made up of past there prime and not mature enough horses...none of them are clicking on all cylinders right now and it might be a competitive race but a superstar will not be born tomorrow

tanner12oz clearly didn't catch the last couple runnings of the Belmont. That 2010 field sure was dynamite.

The way Velazquez sat on the sulky and guided him home, no doubt the best three year old trotter around.
