That's right...….a horse lined over 5-1 has never,ever won any race in history.

The morning line was a bit of hyperbole and certainly not the crux of my argument

And why run at Belmont when you could run at Santa Anita ?
Really ?

You said they would be staying in the barn if they didn't run at Belmont, I was simply pointing out there were races at home that fit better.

So remind me...….how have Calif. horses done on the Eastern ship the last 5 years or so ?

Why go back 5 years to survey the records of different trainers than the ones we are dealing with here. Again, Eurton, D'Amato, and Callaghan have not done that well in the past year.

And remind me...……..how many bad races has Spectator run ?

A better question is how many fast races has Spectator run?

I'll tell ya Rollo.....every single horse you don't like can get beaten Saturday.....I understand that.
But they have all earned their right to be there.

It's not about the "right" to be there. It's all about current form. Personally, I'm not seeing it.
