3 weeks to go to the BREEDER’S CUP RACES and all the money will begoing to BIG BROWN or CURLIN. So-o-o-o what better to pick is GO BTWEEN – he’ll be 9/10 to 1 or more and is fit and ready SANTA ANITA + polytrack fit the bill. SHOULD BE A HECK OF A RACE.

Horses are not machines. The failure of BIG BROWN in the BELMONT should make that quite clear. Now the questions must be asked about ‘STEROIDS’ – IS THIS WHY ‘BIG BROWN’ RAN SO POORLY NOT BEING GIVEN HIS USUAL DOSAGE??? For years it was ‘rumored’ that BAFFERT, LUCAS & OTHER LEADING TRAINERS administered ‘drug cocktails’ to allow their horses to run so much better as if ‘magically’ having them in their barn made average horses super stars – is it time to stop ‘pussy-footing’ around STEROIDS in horse-racing and DEMAND that this sport be drug free??? YES I WROTE DRUG FREE – AND THAT INCLUDES THE SUPPOSED ANTI-BLEEDING MEDICATION LASIX WHICH IN TRUTH HAS THE ABILITY TO MASK OTHER DRUGS!!! Feed, hay, vitamins and the occassional ‘jug’ [of proteins, nutrients] should be in horses that’s it!!! Will BIG BROWN race again – at this point don’t know don’t care. ‘Crushing defeats’ like this are hard to take or just to watch – true champions try harder no matter the outcome. Had more respect for SECRETARIAT being beat first by his stable-mate and ‘rabbit’ ANGLE LIGHT and then ONION than what i saw at yesterday’s BELMONT. BELMONT is indeed the ‘graveyard of prospective champions’. CONGRATS TO ZITO AND ALL THE OTHER TRAINERS/OWNERS HORSES WHO FINISHED AHEAD OF BIG BROWN IN YESTERDAY’S RACE!!!

It’s a shame they took Calvin Borel off Denis of Cork. Apparently it was the owners’ wishes. His ride aboard Street Sense in the Derby had to be about the greatest (if not luckiest) ever.

For all those who ‘think’ BIG BROWN is less than a champion – the only horse to win the DERBY + PREAKNESS each by more than 4 lengths is a guy named WHIRLAWAY!!! BIG BROWN will gallop in the BELMONT and win by as many lengths as his jockey and trainer/owners feel comfortable with[taking care not to exacerbate his quarter crack by an inordinate display of horseracing prowess] Also CASINO DRIVE is reportedly off in his left hind. Pick for exacta is DENIS OF CORK – then MACHO AGAIN – and then READY ECHO.

Perhaps heeding the ‘brash’ DICK DUTROW about his views of the BELMONT — BIG BROWN will certainly win and just maybe just maybe the trainer DUTROW is correct AND CASINO DREAM is not a ‘sure thing’ for second??? In that case PRADO may not extend CASINO DREAM just to get beat by the next TRIPLE CROWN ‘WINNER’ BIG BROWN.
