LOL, where are all those people saying Anew might be the best sprinter in the country off that loose-on-the-lead win over nothing on a speed-favoring track?

What effort by both Silver Train and War Front. Shame somebody had to lose. Glad I stayed away. That would have been a heartbreaker for me.

What an odd horse Silver Train is; he obviously has a lot of ability or else, no matter how much he loves Belmont, he wouldn't be winning these types of races. How to explain a horse that doesn't try on other surfaces? I can't.........Great effort by the Train - he dropped back, came on again, and I thought he was going to blow by. War Front was very game but I never thought the race was in doubt. Silver Train was always going to hold him off, IMO

I thought the race was very much in doubt when Silver Train didnt get by him by more than a half length. War Front came back on and I really thought at that moment he'd get the win but he didnt. A very tough loss but an awesome effort and training job by the Chief.

I am predicting right now War Front wins the BC Sprint.

Nice effort again by Silver Train to win another close one. Hes developing quite the resume.

Like I said before if you are going to pick one track to have an ffor, Belmont Park is the place to do it. Especially for sprinters. I bet you Dutrow lays this horse off until the Vosburgh.

That's exactly what Dutrow said he'll do.. Won't even run him at Saratoga. He's gonna wait for the Vosburgh. I don't blame him either.
