you mean like post 19 in the derby? i believe he was the first to win out of that spot.
post 11 at 1 1/2 miles...i don't think it's a big deal at all.

Not at Belmont; you're thinking of 1-1/4 mile races there.

Actually I was being sarcastic. Obviously, the post won't hurt IHA at all.

They really don't race at a mile and a quarter on the dirt at Belmont. They have to start on the turn. The only times I remember them running at that distance, is for the BC Classic.
