And in other Belmont Stakes news -- the connections of I'll Have Another have reached out to Woody Stephens via a Ouija Board to consult them.
They also have hired Ronnie Franklin and whoever the blacksmith was that shod the two Zito horses in the 2004 Kentucky Derby as consultants.

They need to find out exactly what Velazquez wants to do on Union Rags and exactly what Paynter's jockey wants to do.
Everything else is nonsense and all the general opinions by anyone won't matter. Assuming the track speed is playing close to par -- the cold hard facts are that you need to be close to the pace if the half is slower than 48 -- and relaxed patiently off of the pace if it is faster than 48. Velazquez has two goals on Union Rags -- to get a clear outside trip and to race ride I'll Have Another. Not sure how aggressive he might be. Not sure what the plan will be on Paynter.
