I blame the Detroit Red Wings. After all, they won their last 4 Stanley Cups in 1997, 1998, 2002, and 2008. In those years, Silver Charm, Real Quiet, War Emblem, and Big Brown won the first two legs of the triple crown only to lose the Belmont.

If you can't tell, I live in the suburbs of Detroit. Go Wings.

Pretty simple to see that Big Brown wasn't going to warm up, watch the replay of the prerace warm ups, Kent knew he didn't have the same horse.

The horse didn't like being stuck inside and they wanted him on the outside and that's what kent did.

Big Brown just didn't do it.
