Rags To Riches to Belmont?

[slotdirt]

Why isn't the Belmont the best place to continue this rivalry? It's one of the three most watched races by the public - even without a Triple Crown on the line - and I guarantee you average folks might tune in simply because of the presence of these three. I hope all three make it there and I hope Hard Spun wins.

I'm guessing that very few are actually going to tune in regardless of who runs. No triple crown, no ratings for the Belmont.
