two down and one to go

I guess we're gonna see if the jockey is right about I'll Have Another, but, man, no shit, the Belmont is the hurdle for most American racehorses. There are almost no races written that long. Distance horses are usually from Irish stock, because races are miles long over there, and are usually at the back of the pack for the first mile. In the United States, most races are over by the first mile. I haven't even looked at his pedigree, but, well, a mile and a half, baby. Can he pull it out?

Maybe.

He seems to have late speed, but for how long?

...

Yes. Well. He's got some IRISH, and a lot of NATIVE DANCER. Maybe I'll just not watch.

...

Nope. He had TOO MUCH TROUBLE getting there today, and the Belmont is much longer than the Preakness.
