wicked strong, draw....

jerken's didn't seem to confident at all...almost to the point where his talking and mannerisms suggested "why can't we get a break",..all the while he was saying it was okay in the interview..

The Jerkens men tend to mumble and look itchy in their general affect when interviewed. I don't think he's thrilled with the draw, but I wouldn't read too much into his mannerisms. That's just Jimmy

It's a mile and a half and trainers are worried about the post position. More like they are preparing their connections for the drubbing they are going to take Saturday.

^^^^^

This.......saw a Bafferr interview where the commentator asked Baffert if he had a horse to put in the Belmont & he said, "I wouldn't put a horse up against California Chrome, he's just too good, the horse is unbelievably good & I'm just enjoying the ride, why would I this one of my horses up against that?"

LoL........Baffert knows these other horses are running for 2nd..........

That's the difference between Baffert and a Jerkens. Some like talking, some don't. He does not have a Belmont horse this year and his 3yo flopped. I'm sure hes out cause hes scared of this horse. He gives them the crap they want to hear. With a smile. If he had WS he would be running. Oh yeah, the Jerkens have never taken down horses like this...........that's for sure..

not that wicked can;t run big in here, but i would've liked to have seen a more confident trainer speaking about his horse than the wishy washy one we got.

Trainers have been known to be wrong.

Everyone wants post 5, but Jerkens is extremely confident. Wicked Strong is in the best condition of his life. The question is whether or not he will flatten out at this distance.

I couldn't care less about what the trainer said, or what post he drew. We know this; it can't be as bad as it was in the Derby. The 19 hole was horrible as Wicked Strong got hung out very wide on the first turn. Then in the stretch he gets body slammed by Danza. What a joke there was no inquiry. He's more rested than Chrome. He's going to really make Chrome work.

Her nearly wrecked Candy Boy in that first turn, so if there was an inquiry, he would have been placed much father back.
