        I dont like him to win at all. he only has 3 races, he is in the 20 hole, he has bad feet, and he will be on a very hot pace imo

          My main reasons are his post position and the fact that there are plenty of speed horses that will force him to expend a ton of energy early. I normally take a stand against front runners going 1 1/4 for the first time, especially in a field like this. The 3 horses to his inside are all going to run for the front, which will make it hard for him.

                He even got stuck wide for a good portion and won going away. Very impressive.

                    Four words = TRIPLE CROWN WITH EASE.

                    He was in the 20 hole, stumbled a bit out of the gate, and still won with relative ease and going away. Not to mention, the only horse with 8 lengths or whatever was of him was euthanized after the race unfortunately which is very sad.

                      I'm not ready to crown him just yet. The Belmont is a very long race, and depending on what horses enter there, he could get run down IMO. He had a ton of energy at the end of that race, but the 1 1/2 is a different ballgame.

                          It's the last leg of the triple crown(as I am positive you already knew). And Cuse mentioned that he is a sure shot to win the whole deal. While I am inclined to agree, I think the Belmont will be his toughest hurdle. He will likely dominate at Pimlico, but the Belmont will be tougher IMO. That's if other horses even still want to run against him at that point.

                          None of the Derby field is expected to be in Baltimore for the Preakness:

                            Nittany watch out for Casino Drive he is a horse from Japan and is out of the same dam as Jazil and Rags to Riches and his Sire is Mineshaft. He is pointing to the Belmont, with a prep in the Peter Pan. here is his race from Japan
