The pace was 140 Timeform, that is fast at that distance. It felt controlled probably to him after that Derby.

Sort of surprised more people didn't use him knowing that.
So if he runs 2nd in the BEL it will be freaky.

I’m also suprised more people didn’t bet him simply based on the derby that he ran considering most preakness winners come from that race. He ran a phenomenal derby. And he’s double bred for wet. I don’t know what happened because of the fog but for some reason he lost ground. I know I sound like a broken record but I love this horse. I love Lukas.

No margin for error and no breathers.
I would like to see some comparisons, all horses of every age, with a similar set of graded races (3 grade 1's) and two other races in 90 days. Now a 5th at 110 days.
Probably have to go back to the early 80's. Unheard of in modern racing from my, albeit, average memory.

Just to correct, I said 5th in 110 days, it will be the 6th race.
These trainers who dont run their horses, bunch of crybabies.

"i love Justify, but he is a big time bet against on Belmont day?"
I don't think there is a person on earth who could say unequivocally, at this point in time just a few hours after winning the Preakness, there is a "big time bet against [Justify] on Belmont day."
The question is prematurely speculative and would at this chronological juncture only gain traction in a bar where "last call" has been delayed by virtue of a bar owner trying to profit from a lot of guys hitting on just a few fillies.

Have you ever seen the size of Smarty Jones? He was a smaller horse, Justify is huge.......Smarty was all heart, Justify is phenomenal specimen. If he's healthy & is galloping nicely, he has a great chance to win the triple crown.

Great work! (love seeing the reference to Farma Way, a great hidden turf sire play)
Would add in American Pharoah who in the span of 84 days won the Rebel, Ark Derby, KY Derby, Preakness and Belmont.
