Belmont Winner

Don't spend that 5/2 in one place, super 'capper.

I had Atigun for some real cash. Enjoy though. 5/2 is much better. You're the only one who had it.

5/2 seemed pretty fair though, most of that field had done very little and if you did not like the Romans horse your getting a pretty square price on a good horse.

Yeah. I knew that my chances were in trouble when he broke decent. Just a plug of a horse though. Congrats but he won because Smith has been a f.ucking ho the whole triple crown series and I called it on Derby when he had the horse pinned on a dead rail instead of a path wider.

Today for some odd reason he gave the rail up. Must be all of that wine he's consuming.

I think Rock Tard has finally mushed Baffert. No more GOAT RIP.

I think only 2 people in the world bet Union Rags...the owner and the original poster of his thread. The owner has thier sob story of selling the horse and buying it back at a higher price (rich peoples problems) because she believed in him. Nobody believed this poster on picking the favorite to win the Belmont Stakes. I see a Disney movie in the works.

I picked Rags a 3 weeks ago. I wish Ill Have Snother ran today so I would have gotten a square price on Rags.

The next race UR will win will be one that a 95 BSF will be enough....probably some GR II somewhere

Coach,

What did you think of the way Leparoux was trying to hold Atigun back early? Like It seemed he had to pull up on him a couple of times early in the race. Good? Bad? Irrelevant to the result?

Eh I can't complain really. He probably moved him a half furlong early but there's really no excuses. He had every opportunity to pass them.

It's just I can't get a righteous score. I get great efforts but it's usually a punk b.itch trip horse like Union Rags to ruin my day.

Sorry but that horse can beat me 10 more times. Race of his life today.

Today's Belmont proved that regardless of breeding all horses can get 1 1/2 if the race goes slow enough. 2.30.2 was not exactly track record time.

[ADJMK]

Since 1950 been only 9 Belmonts that have gone slower than 2.30.

Union Rags is still slow. . . 96 Beyer

Surprised no European horses dont take a stab at this race.

When you were seeing a horse under an iron-grip, were you really surprised to see that it was Leparoux in the irons?

[Danzig]

it seemed the horses were all moving in slow mo much of the time. didn't need to hear the fractions to know smith was trying to lull them all early. but then late they all still seemed to be barely moving.
with iha being done, i don't think rags is now the top horse in the crop-i'd have to believe it's bodemeister, and many thought he was already.

[booner]

Speaking of Bodemeister, any news as to whether he will stay out west this summer (Del Mar) or come back east and run at Saratoga?

He'll run 2nd somewhere. Mike will help the winner again. Wouldn't want to actually race ride. Idiots might scold him for puttiing a horse in the rail. Come on through, bruh.

Interviewed on one of the two racing channels the owner mentioned the Haskell.

I think Bafferts holding aces here. Paynter is going to be REALLY GOOD. This was asking a lot, very soon from him. I know the race came back slow, but it like I said it was a lot. The horse won at 5.5f in Feb to break his maiden. If I was asked right now I would say the top 3 horses right now in this crop are Bode, Paynter and Rags... In that order.
