    I remember watching Secretariat win in the basement of my neighbors house as a child. I was going into the 6th grade that year.

    Now my youngest will watch this race. I hope she gets to see the triple crown like I did.

    ohhhhh Rats :(

    I hope so, too.

    Most of my g'kids are sharing in my excitement.

    They roll their eyes at the history lessons I'm giving.

    The owner is disgruntled and disillusioned.

    If Chrome had finished in second place the owner may have a

    ligitimate gripe, but tied for 4th place, no way....

    Well- I've watched CC in all three races. I am a visual player. I do go through the PPerform. but I need to observe the horse before the race in the PP. CC did notlook good at all. Millie Ball and others say he looked "quiet". The fact is he lost condition after KD.-progressively. Did Sherman overtrainhim? Definitely Espinoza's riding was suspect. He wasn't riding to win. CC wanted a free stride which Espinoza denied time and again. Watch the race again. Everytime CC wnted to get out and going VE kept him bottled up. This morning Millie Ball said the exact same thing.

    Love to see a matchup of the top five -same distance -again.

    Ten weeks or so from now.
