Officially - Mint Lane by 5 3/4. Unbridled's Heart beaten 6 1/2 on the wire.

When he stayed inside, it looked like they were in trouble. If he had horse, he probably takes the outside route.

You have to wonder if it was by design as it was a curious move. Maybe they wanted to see how he would react to rating and getting dirt in his face.

He didn't like it.

How long until someone tells us the rail is dead? Of course, maybe it is. Hard to tell with only four dirt races. I'll have to look at the first two again. The first sure played outside.

I agree good run Mint Lane- it makes you type a few letters when you quote someone.

In hindsight i should have typed "I agree"

Bottom line is we're looking at the worst crop of 3 year old colts in the history of the sport.

I was on the phone with my boss aka "my wife", out of all the times she has to call and give me things to do it had to be when they were loading into the gate of race 3.

Unbridled's Heart had a more difficult trip than he did last month but he still could improve. The 3 year olds division is still suspect. The mistake I made was not taking a chance against him. I had the right idea last night but chickened out today.

Betting against Jimmy Jerkens at this current Belmont meet is hazardous to your bankroll.
