All the leaves are green
And the sky is blue
The Belmont\'s in Two Weeks
and...Pletcher where are YOU?
It would simpler to cash
If you were at Elmont
Belmont Stakes dreaming...
We need you to stay hot.
Stopped into a stall
You passed along the way
Well, You got down on your knees
And begged for Steve Allday
Incognito is his mode
Alone he likes to play
Belmont Stakes Dreaming
On a coming Springtime Day.
All the leaves are green
and the sky is blue
The Belmonts getting near...
Todd Pletcher where are you?
With a just a little juice
You could run that day.
Belmont Stakes dreaming
on such a springtime day.
You have way too much time on your hands.

Remember... when Pletcher was young
he shone like the sun.
Shine on you cra....zy diamond.
Now... there\'s a look in his eyes
like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you cra....zy trainer
You were caught in the crossfire of pharmacy illusion
blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter,
come on you stranger, you faker, you martyr, and shine!
You reached for the secret too soon
and you bounced to the moon
Shine on you cra....zy diamond
Threatened by stewards in the night, and exposed in the light
Shine on you cra....zy trainer
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
rode on their steel breeze
Come on you raver, you seer of visions,
come on you salesman, you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

Aside from these wonderfully creative posts, does anyone have any insight into the type of post race drug testing capability NYRA will have for the Belmont?
i\'m hearing that threshold levels used in post race testing are well beyond the limit to make them relevent . i\'m not sure the collective resolve requiered to erradicate the use of illegal perfomance enhancing drugs in racing is there - perhaps \"one of these days\" ...
