Morning line is even, but I bet he goes 1-2. Anyone know anything about the others? The rest of the five horse field will be overlaid.

Maybe the bridgejumpers will come out today. Might be worth betting all to show.

He's not green and he doesn't look like a monkey! His owner must of turned green when they paid 16,000,000.00 for him. I'm playing the #1 to beat the monkey.

Looks like the 1 and 2 have heard about him and are even scared...

As of 11:12 when the early scratches came out he was not on the list. Very exciting stuff. Did they open up the parking lots at 8 am expecting tens of thousands like they do on Belmont day?

1-1 morning line is a joke. Automatic toss out for me in the P3s. Overhyped=overbet

I don't know if Pletcher would run him if he wasn't 110% sure he'll run 1st or 2nd at worst. He'll win today bet on it. ha ha

I did read somewhere they are giving away Rags pins to the first 12,000 at Belmont today. Think they will have any left over?
