I have a $2 win bet on Barbaro from the 2006 Preakness. I'd gather it's worth precisely $0.

No.
It's weird. Having lived through Triple Crown possibilities from Riva Ridge onwards, this one is remarkably quiet and unemotional. Definitely a different "feel" about this possibility, this horse.

^^^ This. Honestly, I haven't had a single non-fan friend of mine ask about the Triple Crown this year. Maybe it's because the race is still more than a week away. Maybe it's because I don't live on the West Coast. Either way, there's just not a buzz yet.
Over or under 100k at Belmont on the 9th? I think I'd take the under.

As far as the sounviner $2.00 ticket goes, I'm not buying one unless I have tickets from Churchill and Pimlico as well.

Wondering aloud if it was the heat or the horse that kept the crowd under 100k in 2008?
