I didn't count the first race as I was focusing on this year. Yes the rain helped in the Preakness but he came back three weeks later and ran the 6th fastest Belmont ever. Again I'm not saying he was the greatest ever but some of the bashing on here is crazy. Hate the connections or not it wasn't luck that carried this horse.
