The Belmont will be a place for fools to lose big time. The smart money will
stay in the wallet.
We can't be stupid. No horse has come out of the Derby and Preakness like this
since Affirmed. Well, maybe Spectacular Bid.
He looks like a horse from the 70's, he trains like a horse from the 70's, and
he runs like a horse from the 70's.
Some say betting against him common sense. I disagree. Common sense tells me
this horse will win the Triple Crown. And it's not because I want him to do it
But the facts speak for themselves.
Some are letting their wallet and gambling sense rule the head with this
constant try to beat the favorite stuff. We need to realize that we are
making excuses and that the favorite can't be beat.
This 3 weeks off a best Beyer stuff is CRAP. Lots of horses run back in 3 weeks
off a top Beyer and run a higher figure and you know it - especially horses
under the age of 4 who are still developing.
The pedigree is not necessarily a problem. The sire and dam are both relatively
new and we don't know what they are passing on. If you go further back more than 2
generations there's a lot of nice horses in there - he's 3x Bold Ruler for one
thing!
