exactly..

If you like SS you are better off betting him to win the Preakness then parlaying it to the Belmont.

When was the last time Maria's Mon (rest in peace) sired a horse that wanted to go 12 furlongs on the dirt? Has there been one?

Monarchos, like the rest of his progeny, got 12 furlongs and I believe Super Saver will too, it's just a matter of how long it will take them.

Monarchos got 12f? When? In one of Jim Squires' dreams?

Needless to say, I missed NTamm's joke. Monba sure liked going 12f, though in fairness to Maria's Mon, Monba didn't really like going any distance.

Monarchos ran 3rd beaten a city block in the 2001 Belmont.

Wait a While liked to go a route of ground, but to be fair again, she also liked grass and procaine.

Yes, but I don't think there are any Point Givens in this years field.

Is it fair to say that maybe we have a weeeee small sample size?

[slotdirt]

Maria's Mon had almost 1,000 foals on the ground before he kicked it. How big a sample size do you want?

How many tried going 12f on the dirt?

I don't see how the colt's pedigree is in any way a negative. Maria's Mon over a well-bred A.P. Indy mare indicates plenty of stamina to me.

It seems unlikely that he will win the TC, but I don't think that is because he is lacking in the stamina department in terms of pedigree.
