I think he needs to cut down on race day medications...

But to answer the original question, no....

No doubt, but if it was me and I had a triple crown on the line, I'd probably need about a half a dozen Wild Turkeys and coke to make it through and pray I could still talk when and if the post race interview comes up.

I think Chrome can do it. I thought his biggest challenge to date would come from Social Inclusion yesterday. Barring an unforeseen entrant, I think he can handle any of his previous competitors and win the Belmont.

Here's to seeing that big white face pulling ahead of the pack on June 7.

Can't wait!!

This has to be one of the oddest threads I've ever seen here on DT.

He absolutely can win but I don't want him to for a somewhat silly reason. I want the next winner to be the clear, no doubt top 3yo in the land. I think Chrome is very good and just may be the best but I'm still of the opinion that Shared Belief is the best. I've seen 10 horses go to NY with a chance to win the crown and I've wanted five to win (Alysheba, War Emblem, Smarty Jones, Big Brown, and I'll Have Another) while the other five, I didn't necessarily want them to lose but I wasn't hoping for a win.
