Stately Victor is supposed to run.

Oh yea!!! Thanks for the news!!!

I wonder if I'll match the amount I lost on him in the Derby or surpass it.

I dont see how Ice Box loses in this race. Zito first and second

[Rudeboyelvis]

My guess is that Noble's Promise will be entered, take money, and be destroyed.

I would not discount First Dude ala Da Tara to take a stab on the front end.... The Dude is game... Ice Box seems the logical choice at this point...

noble's promise is supposed to go over seas, running in a group one race on the turf. they know he's not a classic distance horse.

I don't see him winning it based on his running style.

The race is still 3 weeks out though.

I think he has a chance but he's far from a lock. In the Derby, there was a really fast pace and everyone was stopping. He won't get nearly as good of a set-up in the Belmont.

On the one hand, you would think that he would have no problem with the extra distance. On the other hand, it's pretty tough to run 1 1/2 miles on your left lead. He didn't switch coming down the lane in either one of his last two races. I would certainly consider that a negative.

I am actually a really big fan of Setsuko in the Belmont, looking forward to seeing how he is training into this race if he goes

Second this one. I don't think he's far from Ice Box and will be a much better price.

I think you will now see Winstar run Drosselmeyer. Also Pletcher may run Devil May Care.

Also, Uptowncharlybrown, New Madrid, and Stay Put are pointing for the Belmont.

[Rupert Pupkin]

Super Saver is obviously not going to run in the Belmont. He's going to get a rest.

I would guess that there is probably a 50% chance that Lookin' at Lucky will run. They may want to save him for the second half of the year.

[Alan07]

Will there be .10 cent supers available?

Ya highly doubt we see Super Saver(Looked dead),LAL(rest),Jax Bend(Distance),Paddy(Turf),Yawanna Twist(Distance)


I was gonna pass on it but damn it looks like a big payoff race. Other than Ice Box who will be bet down to like 5/2,Dublin and Stately Victor there could be nice prices

Who cares? This crop is horribad.

I'll care, when the race is drawn and I can actually see a field on paper.

It's a potential wagering opportunity, at a track that I play regularly, horribad horses or not.

[RolloTomasi]

Did New Madrid win an allowance or something?

Seems like he has potential (possibly in turf races), but if he's being pushed as he was in the Arkansas Derby to go to the Belmont then this might go a long way in telling who's decision it was to run heavily-campaigned Summer Bird in the Japan Cup Dirt.

1. Drosselmeyer (Mott)

[johnny pinwheel]

just as i thought no horses in all 3, not even the winners of the first two. have they thought about having the triple crown for 4 year olds ever instead of the current way?
