I agree. Just looking preliminarily at the field, trying to beat Curlin could be an exercise in futility. I had a feeling that the "wiseguy" idea this year was going to be to play up the Derby late also-rans. Since last year's Belmont was won by a Derby late also-ran that seems like everyone's favorite angle for this year's running. Difference being that with Hard Spun and Curlin in this year's field there is real talent. Last year's field may have been long on horses, but it was short on talent.

All in all, it's going to take a career effort from Imawildandcrazyguy or Tiago to win the Belmont while Curlin could potentially regress and still win.
