Amazing that the 1970s produced three Triple Crown winners, and we're now 0-34 since.

I liked his chances.

 

[Icebear]

I liked his chances.

I did, too, coming from off the pace in the first two races as he did had me really favoring his chances in the longest of the races at Belmont.

He was the best horse in the race but I gave him little chance of winning against fresher horses. Kudos to his connections for scratching him. There is a lot of pressure to run in this situation.

Bummer. It would have great to see him try, whether he won or not.

Exactly! Wow! I was going to be sure to be near a TV tomorrow. Now, not so much

Must be parity! Any horse on any given Saturday.

I agree

Haha! I suppose this performance, then, was positively UConn-esque.

That was a sweet gallop down memory lane.....Big Red has always been my fav.
