I've had horses at Belmont for many years, yes I know, they are treated very well.
To give you and idea it costs about a hundred dollars a day to keep a horse in training at any major track.
I have never seen a horse mistreated at any track they are taken care of by very dedicated horsemen.
As far as the race yesterday, I think he proved the Derby was not lucky, flash in the pan.
He has the stuff, but Bodie is also a super horse, both were ahead by
9 lengths, and those behind them are great horses.
There will be a few horses that skipped yesterday and will have had time off before the Belmont.
I would love to see a Triple Crown winner it's been a long time, especially from a small time trainer & unknown rider.
