I agree, that is why I said side note, just kind of an aside to the discussion.
More on point, I'm not surprised the Belmont has been better than the Preakness. That race is nowhere near what it used to be as so few want to run their horses back in two weeks any longer. Hell, many don't want to run back in two months.
