Belmont Stakes Rundown

[Chuckles_the_Clown2]

Big Brown Obviously throttled down early and late at Pimlico. Folks trying to read pattern there are reading \"My Pet Goat\" upside down in Chinese. The hoof is the best chance to spring an upset.

Macho Again Underrated

Denis of Cork As overrated as the previous one is dismissed. He was hurting at the end of the Derby and will apparently have to die on track to save me from banishment to the poor handicappers blog. (TheSheets) I would think I\'d get at least a two week post race grace period for the infirmity to fully manifest itself, after all it took Barbaro almost a year to cash all tickets. Regardless spacing is an unsound theory to coddle infirm horses. Dismiss it.

Da Tara The horse looks on the improve to me. Guessing Zito\'s other will take more play.

Tale of Ekati The poor work attributable to the throat has to be a tough pill for his backers to swallow. Then as poorly as he worked he work brilliantly.

Ichabad Crane Whoever did the race of the week pretty much bad mouthed him. If only he\'d gotten second in the Preakness.

It\'s that time of year, Calder and Saratoga, so should Denis snap it on track I\'ll still be on leave. If I miss my bet and have to pick it up at \"TheSheets\", tune in there for extensions to the Derby winning streak. If I need a new nick, look for something funny.
