What the Horse Racing Nation is saying about Luv Gov...

Warning: what you are about to read should be taken with extreme skepticism. Not to sound self deprecating, but yours truly is on one nasty losing streak in the Triple Crown, and the selection for the Belmont Stakes will be made as a means of self defense...Read More
So, we’re expected to believe that the strong Belmont Stakes day program will be run in the seam of the weather zone. At this point, I’d probably be willing to lay 7-5 on a fast track at 6:27 p.m. Saturday, but not one point higher.Today and Saturday, we’ll sketch out the 10 Belmont Stakes entrants ...Read More
Lukas is not favored to win the Belmont and doesn't quite rule the Sport of Kings the way he once did when he was winning almost every Triple Crown race he entered.But he's clearly having more fun than ever. And if Flying Private or Luv Gov happens to come out of nowhere to give him his 14th Triple ...Read More
Ok, I am officially smitten with Mine That Bird. I admit to being one of those misguided souls who paid no attention to him before the Kentucky Derby other than to comment what a beautiful mover he was. After the Preakness and seeing him on the Belmont track Thursday morning, I have to say in simple...Read More
The two key figures in the pace scenario for Saturday’s Belmont Stakes are Miner's Escape and Charitable Man. The former will be a longshot in the field of 10, while Charitable Man was made the 3-1 second choice behind Mine That Bird. So, let’s see how this may play out...Read More
  • mshutty · Excellent analysis of the Belmont Stakes likely pace scenario by Steve Haskin. I think he has the two early leaders nailed down. There is no doubt in my mind that the Zito barn is sending Miner's Escape. I believe Steve's estimate of where Dunkirk will be sitting early is interesting. He has decent trackable cruising speed, so if the pace is slow he'll find himself closer to the leaders than is being projected but without compromising his late punch. Agree, however that I would prefer he sits about 5 lengths off early closing that gap to two lengths behind about mid final turn. · 977 days ago ·

The two main elements in predicting the ‘09 Belmont Stakes outcome are pedigree and pace handicapping.Pace makes the race, and Charitable Man looms the one to catch. He is 3-3 on conventional dirt and 2-2 at Belmont. He pulled off a wire job in 6.5f career bow and is capable of rating should another...Read More
Remember when D. Wayne Lukas won an amazing six Triple Crown races in a row and seven of eight from 1994 to 1996? Remember when Lukas sent out one of the most improbable Belmont Stakes winners ever in Commendable? Well, before you dismiss Lukas’ pair of longshots this year, remember who you’re deali...Read More
"Between :49 and :50." That has become your standard instructions by a trainer to his rider prior to a horse's final work for the Belmont Stakes. Gone are the days when trainers would work their horse at least seven furlongs, more likely a mile or even a mile and an eighth for the grueling "Test of ...Read More
Eleven colts and geldings are being pointed toward next Saturday's Belmont S. (G1), but Preakness S. (G1) victress RACHEL ALEXANDRA (Medaglia d'Oro) looks doubtful. Co-owner Jess Jackson didn't rule her out when delaying a decision earlier this week, but he mentioned the June 27 Mother Goose S. (G1)...Read More
Hall of Fame trainer D. Wayne Lukas worked both LUV GOV (Ten Most Wanted) and FLYING PRIVATE (Fusaichi Pegasus) Wednesday morning at Churchill Downs, and will send both in the 141st running of the $1 million Belmont S. (G1) on June 6.Read More

Trainer Kiaran McLaughlin said Tuesday morning that a final decision will be made Wednesday on whether CHARITABLE MAN (Lemon Drop Kid) will start in the $1 million Belmont S. (G1) on June 6.

  • mdracing69 · It was confirmed today that Charitable Man will run in the Belmont Stakes. Glad to see the fresh face join the Triple Crown trail. Note that he is 3-3 on conventional dirt and 2-2 at Belmont. · 992 days ago ·

There will be no Triple Crown winner in 2009, but there is a possibility of a showdown in the June 6 Belmont Stakes (gr. I) between the winners of the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (gr. I) and Blackberry Preakness Stakes (gr. I).Read More
As of about 6:45 a.m. EDT, every horse was on the grounds at Pimlico Race Course for the May 16 Preakness Stakes (gr. I), the middle jewel of the Triple Crown. The 2009 Preakness is the most intriguing in recent memory, with the top four finishers from the May 2 Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Bran...Read More
How many ways can horse racing shoot itself in the foot? It appeared to find a new one Sunday, when Ahmed Zayat said he was considering colluding with other owners in an effort to keep Rachel Alexandra out of the Preakness.Read More
