If I have to hear one more person talk about the stupid asterisk and Audible, I'm going to
Please man...PLEASE
WHY THE **** WOULD THEY RACE AUDIBLE IN THE BELMONT STAKES, EVEN IF 100% HEALTHY? WHY WOULD THEY COMPETE AGAINST THEMSELVES?
It makes ZERO sense to any rational thinking person.
It would be like if Penny Chenery had Riva Ridge and Secretariat in the same year...you think she would have run Riva Ridge in the Belmont when Secretariat was going for the Triple Crown?
I would say absolutely NO WAY would she have done that...and that harkens back to the "good ol' days" when Secretariat, supposedly, ran drug free, but that's another story.
STOP IT with the stupid asterisk because of Audible.
