Punch me in the mouth and hit me over the head with a board and take half my bet if I decide to bet Mucho Macho Man again. At least I'll have half my bet left.

The extra ground is definitely going to make a difference for Isn't He Perfect.

Nicole, I can only imagine your shoe closet. Puts Sarah Jessica Parker to shame no doubt.

Wilko, you're right. Not only did I lose money on the horse, I also confuse the spelling of his name with that of the rock band's. Like the horse, also a one-hit wonder.

I don't know if I have been brain washed by the tactics of many of today's connections (by babying and over protecting horses), but I really don't understand or see the need for MMM (and for that matter Animal Kingdom/Shackelford) to run at Belmont. Obviously there is no TC at stake, so why run for the 3rd time in 5 weeks? Both horses (AK & Shack) have run big the last 2 races, so why not sit out the Belmont and rest up for the summer campaign?

As for Stay Thirsty , did anyone tell Repole that 1 1/2 means the distance of the race and not to complete it in an hour and half time.

Master of Hounds worked this morning and is still greenlighted for the Belmont, in what would be his third international ship in 2.5 months.

Why didn't he just stay in the U.S.? I always figured they would give the Belmont Stakes a go.Is it cheaper to fly him back and forth, rather than rent a room?

The Belmont field will be limited to sixteen (16) starters.

Q: Why does the Belmont only payout to first 5 while every other NY stake pays to last?

Alternation's team is, oddly, deciding to rest rather than run.
