What the Horse Racing Nation is saying about Dullahan...

Kent Desormeaux is finally seeking help. The 42-year-old jockey will start a six-week outpatient alcohol rehabilitation program beginning Tuesday, according to his agent, J.R. Pegram. Desormeaux failed a Breathalyzer test May 18 at Belmont Park that not only cost him three mounts that day, but also ...Read More

  • LAZMANNICK · To me he has the best chance of upsetting IHA. He was too lightly raced going into the Derby but he seems to be primed and ready to give it a good shot now. · 2 days ago ·

One thing that is for sure, is that if I’ll Have Another does not get the respect he deserves going into the 2012 Belmont, should he win, taking the Triple Crown, he should go down as one of the most respected Triple Crown winners in the history of the series.Read More

  • lynn.nely · I have respect for all the horses in the world. Think they are the greatest animal on this earth. I respect I'll Have Another although my pick was Bode. I do hope that we have a triple crown winner and expect that we will. He has the speed and the stimula to do it. This has been in the making for a very long time and I am looking so forwarded in seeing history being made again. Good Luch I'll Have Another in you races and becoming the new Triple Crown Winner. · 5 days ago ·

  • AnnaK · Would love a Triple Crown, mostly because it would pull people in to the races, (already started I like to think), plus IHA is such a strong red engine and Mario is excellent, that it just might be. Can't see Dullahan doing it, 27 in the last q good to know, that fancy inefficient leg work, so IHA and UR and anyone else can duke it out. · 5 days ago ·

Desormeaux screwed up once in the Belmont, and he won't screw up again. If I'll Have Another is the one to catch there may be no TC.

  • AfterHours · IHA's only real competition, IMO, will be Dullahan. If Gemologist weren't out on an injury I would say he would be serious competition as well, and in that case I wouldn't know who to route for but luckily that's not the case! But as far as UR goes, he isn't even in my top 3 ITM horses. IHA, Dullahan and Paynter will be the horses I'm watching. But no matter who wins, it will be an amazing race and IHA will remain one of the best horses I've seen (personally). · 6 days ago ·

  • saratoga john · Having watched the race several times since Derby Day, Guiterrez made two key moves with I'll Have Another. Both occurred at the top of the stretch. One, was at the start, and the other move at the turn for home. The first was getting him out of that 2nd gate to a wide-open space through the stretch so he could relax the horse through the clubhouse turn. The second, was pretty remarkable since this was Guiterrez' first time in a race of this magnitude. It was the key move as they spun off the turn at the 1/4 pole. Drifting out in the middle of the track with Went the Day Well & Dullahan to his outside, the key move was sliding him back inside to make his run at Bodemeister. The closers were still commited the the 7 & 8 paths and stayed out there to launch, but it was too late. Guiterrez was already gone and taking a bead on the game Bodemeister. Bodemeisters' ability to burn those fractions and still be running at the end was quite impressive. That's why I'm taking Bodemeister in the shorter Preakness. · 10 days ago ·

  • Dressage3295 · I realize that cocoa- I'm saying that this was one race, and with the way these two colts are maturing, they'll soon be on their way to destroying colts like IHA. Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against him, he performed well, but Dullahan and Went the Day Well have the best combination of speed and stamina and determination in this year's crop. · 10 days ago ·

  • travel_vic · How many time do I hear all about the CLOSERS who never get up as often as they should. CLOSING ability is directly depenedent upon the pace of the race and the abilities of those UP FRONT to hold on or not. Closers are passive to that experience and have to deal with what is left after the pace horses commit to a run. · 10 days ago ·
