I'm surprised there haven't been more of these threads or at least one asking if people think he can or will win the Triple Crown.

I'm starting to think he might just do that and I can't decide if it's wishful thinking or not. If you think about it wouldn't that just give the finger to so much of the negative stuff that's been written lately?

The excitement and rarity of it... I think that is the one single event that could really help the sport in a big way and quickly.

I voted yes.

No idea how I'm playing it yet but sure... he might win. He might win it all.

I think we saw the 12th Triple Crown winner today.

Does anyone else?

I certainly think he can.....But Belmont is a different kinda race as we know. Wondering who possibly is waiting in the wings to try and upset....I still will stick with Bodie..

What's great about the Belmont for a gambler when a Triple Crown is on the line is for one, if you can beat the big horse, then the payoffs can be fantastic. And if you don't, then you can enjoy a Triple Crown winner (and still maybe cash).

Because they thought he would get beat that means people need to brush up on their handicapping?

This time of year really brings the dolts out of the woodworks.
