13 in that field, but a race I hadn't seen on video before:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1immmAJSubw http://news.google.com/newspapers?ni...g=5443,1948469 Some interesting stats in those newspaper clippings: - It was the first time the Derby winner skipped the Belmont since 1970; and - Largest field for the Belmont was 14 in 1875 |

I think I'm going to favor the early speed types, even with a large field.
Grabbing disease is everywhere. Even if it isn't, Oxbow is a tough horse and the pace will not be as fast as the Derby. |

It will certainly be in the Pick 4 if the prospective field enters.
FYI, it has been in the Pick 4 9 of the last 10 years, with the only exception being 2010. That running had a field of five. |

Love, he probably is going to be second choice.

@DRFGrening: Always in a Tiz will skip Belmont Stakes and instead run in the Easy Goer on Saturday, per racing manager Anthony Bonomo Jr. Field now 14.
