what horrible field, Justify wins this with Mike Smith on the brakes the whole time. But this only enhances the Belmont as Justify goes for the Triple Crown. This will be a just enjoy the race Preakness instead of trying to win money Preakness.

1.) Justify (Baffert)

over...

Bravazo (Lukas)
Sporting Chance (Lukas)
Diamond King (Jo. Servis)
Tenfold (Asmussen)
Quip (Brisset)
Lone Sailor (Amoss)
Good Magic (Brown)

over...

Bravazo (Lukas)
Sporting Chance (Lukas)
Diamond King (Jo. Servis)
Tenfold (Asmussen)
Quip (Brisset)
Lone Sailor (Amoss)
Good Magic (Brown)

Perfect. And when Good Magic finishes 2nd, it will pay $17.

The only way to make money is keying Justify in a pick 4 or 5. Catching a price or 2 or hitting it multiple times. This is not a horse I am trying to beat

Like many others, I like the inclusion of Tenfold in the race. A horse I haven’t heard much about is Diamond King. He will face the best competition he’s ever faced but he ran very well last time out off the layoff and was running hard down the stretch. I’m hoping the local connections don’t hurt his post odds. I may put some money on him to win and will probably end up putting a decent amount on:

Justify / Tenfold, Diamond King / Tenfold, Diamond King, Good Magic, Lone Sailor

Bolt D`Old to Met Mile. If Army Mule and Backyard Heaven and a few other's show up, he should compete for 6th.

I think Diamond King underneath in the trifecta is the best value. Justify/ Good Magic, Quip and Diamond King or delete Quip from the tri and key Justify over Diamond King and Good Magic

Default Could you Justify an Appearance Fee ?
Winstar should be looking for a piece of the gate at Belmont. They would probably have to pay the ransom because it’s in their best interest.

He trains the horses. He doesn't own them (at least these). Owner Gary West wants to run Restoring Hope. And he's not a guy to argue with.

I assume this has happened before in the Belmont but its still strange to me. I understand training multiples for the Derby but its not reality to think that B.B doesn't want Justify to win. Its not like he is sending a rabbit for him to close in to. I'm sure he will be happy if R.H wins but not as happy the other way around.

Interesting none the less and I would like to hear that post race press conference.

Dale was in fine form for the post-draw panel. They were all great, but him in particular. If NBC's coverage of horse racing started off with a tight 5min from Dale Romans, I think you'd see a definite boost to the numbers.
