Was There Ever a Colt-Free Triple Crown ?

[toetoe]

What if 'Bird, a filly or another gelding wins the Belmont Stakes ? Did the winners of any year ever include nary a colt ? I predict no colt will win the BS.

Whew, that took ... balls.



Lisa Ling's new hubby, Mr. Falcon Ridge-Ling --- your thoughts ?

Good question!

Most ot the Triple race BARED geldings for many years, and fillies have NEVER been afforded that kind of respect versus the colts, NEVER

Everything I read about the filly said that she had reached her distance limit in that race Saturday.

How to describe the attitude of Hal Wiggins --- hidebound, hackneyed ?

It seems that barring geldings and holding out fillies makes a joke of the value of the winners as future sires. I believe they used to ban geldings from classic races in England, as --- HORRORS --- someday, one might even win. :rolleyes: .
