Scowl on his face. Made excuses for Ice Box and ignored Fly Down who ran great. Didn't say one good word about the winners....you would think that when Bill Mott and Mike Smith win their first Belmont, he would congratulate them.

Are you joking?

That is the entire problem with this ****in sport! Why is everybody supposed to love everybody else? The business is already so incestous and overrun with conflict of interests that you should be happy that the guy was upset he didnt win. Like Bill Mott and Mike Smith have never won anything and we should all forget about our own personal feeling to slap them on the back?

I shut the telecast off as soon as Drosselmeyer crossed the finish line, but what did Zito say and what should he have said? He's allowed to be disappointed - he's not a robot. I'm sure he was happy with Fly Down, but still - finishing 2nd and a close second is frustrating

He was asked about Ice Box. He responded about Ice Box. He also said he was happy with Fly Down who he said "ran great".

End of story.

That's it, then. I thought going into the race that Fly Down was the better horse - I guess that's the truth. However, 2:31 and change? Of course, he'll never have to run the distance again.

I think the only certainty is that Fly Down is about a 1/2 length better than First Dude.

Criticizing RA's HotY award is the only thing that's off limits here, I believe.
