SAT - Belmont Day - Great Card

[Bogey]

This is one of those days that we (horseplayers) look forward to with great anticipation and the Belmont Stakes's card does not disappoint. Plenty of money will go through the windows and hopefully some it will come back in your pocket(s). Keep an eye out in the early races for the track condition (possible bias) because we all know that they (superintendent) have a way of souping it up on big days.

Would love it if you're right! Desperately want to see someone give Big Brown a challenge, and he looks like the only hope.
