Legging Out A Triple?
Intentional Foul — ... Rick Dutrow, Jr: If Big Brown gets the lead, especially down the stretch, it’s hard to see any of the other horses catching him. The one question I do have has to do with Big Brown’s inside position. He’s drawn the number 1 slot, meaning he’ll be up against the fence. Can the other jockeys box the favorite in and block his path to history? Will they if they can? We’ll find out Saturday. Anyway, here are the post positions along with the odds related to the horse, compiled by Vegas Watch: (1) Big Brown, 2/5 (2) ...

There is some big horse race today
bigblueview.com 6/7/2008 — I have to interrupt our daily discussion of the Giants today to recognize that history could be made in a different sport today.

2008 Belmont Stakes: Da'Tara Beats Tired Big BrownFanIQ Blog
Belmont's 1.5 mile track was too much for Big Brown. Kent Desormeaux may have very well saved the sport of horse racing a major headache by pulling up on his champion horse when he realized he wasn't himself. For most of the race I think we all figured Big Brown was just pacing himself in third place, waiting for the big push that we've seen at the Derby and Preakness. But ...

Casino Drive Scratched!!East Coast Bias
Casino Drive is a SCRATCH for today's Belmont, as a result of the injury initially reported yesterday. Stone bruise or not, Casino Drive is out! So what does this do to the betting?

If Big Brown loses ...

Live Blog: Belmont Stakes [Triple Crown]Deadspin
Can no-longer-Hooters-sponsored Big Brown be the first Triple Crown winner since Carl Yastrzemski Affirmed in 1978? In the 30 years since, 10 horses have been in Big Brown's position, looking for the sweep. With Japanese import Casino Drive gone, what was already being called a certain victory by trainer Rick Dutrow seems all the more likely for the now briefly steroid-free horse. Join ...
