Not trying to argue it wasnt a pitifully bad field, but to call the 2006 Belmont much better isnt really accurate. Bob & John, LOL! Claim to fame is winning a weak rendition of the Wood Memorial over a muddy surface.

I think there were 2 outstanding 3 year olds last year and I dont have to mention there names. The rest were just mediocre, but thats just my opinion.

Afleet Alex could have beaten many, many horses when he won the Preakness and Belmont. Both performances were devestatingly awesome, so to me holding the competiton against him is silly. I think we all know he would have won the Derby with a slightly better trip.
Just out of curiousity between Barbaro, Bernardini and Discreet Cat who do you not feel is the outstanding one?
