Anyone watching these races.
Great race today. Two legs down for "I'll have another".
Now the true test of a champion. The mile and a half Belmont. In the early 2000's a few horses managed to pull off the first two legs only to come up short in the Belmont. If memory serves me correct Charasmatic came the closest. Was leading in the Belmont before getting run down at the wire.
What does everyone think? Can this horse do it?

It'd be cool to see it done, but really, who the f**k cares about horse racing?

1) not a sport
2) so you follow horse racing year round? You follow certain jockeys and trainers and know what's what other than the 2 months these races are ran?

1) what is your definition of sport
2) no I don't. But I do know when the main races are on. Breeders, Santa Anita, Triple Crown races. I do know the main players in terms of jockeys and trainers.

Lol at it not a sport if you only realised the hours and sweat that go into horse racing. I work in the Harness Racing industry not thoroughbreds but work and effort is the same. These animals are at the physical best. I am so looking forward to the Belmont to see if we can have a triple crown winner. The one thing is I'll have another can race of the lead which is important in a distance race as it sets up for a closer.

That race today was Phreaky. Who could know that the Preakness could be such a Phreaky race? Phreaks me out.
