For nearly two decades the conspiracy-theorists (who curiously all seem to hail from one state) have been arguing that the Belmont Stakes was the only meeting between these two horses in which Harthill couldn't administer some nefarious substance to Sunday Silence. Basically the argument goes that Whittingham was a despicable cheater who was prevented from cheating in this one race by the tremendous barn-security that exists - apparently - "only in New York." I don't buy it.....but there are plenty of people who do. I assume they probably also have some explanation/excuse for why Sunday Silence outperformed Easy Goer in the shed, but it too probably doesn't involve saying the words, "Sunday Silence was simply better." |
