I always watch the Belmont, though I hate that it’s 1 1/4 this year, because they build such a good stakes card around the Belmont.

I hate that trash can pimlico and may actually skip for the first time in forever. It will be baffert vs AOC horses and that is no fun. I’ll check Twitter to see if he broke anything down.

Stronarch lets him get away with murder. He gets the same treatment at Monmouth, so I also hate the Haskell.

Iwy, justify gets an * on his triple crown, and not just because he didn’t actually qualify for the derby. That Belmont was one of the most rigged races I’ve seen outside Louisiana. And not just then instilled regard interference, there were lots of horses not entered and equipment changes made with horses of slightly common ownership groups

And he was never a sound horse.

I miss the Visa triple crown challenge. $1 million to whichever horse gets the most points in the 3 races, $5 million if there had been a triple crown.

Bring that back and we’ll see more run in all 3.

I honestly had never heard of this until your post. Wow. That is some Louisiana Downs type stuff I never viewed him on American Pharoah's level but this does bump him down a bit. Dang.
