  • DeadHeat · No denying that Mott has a ton of good horses in his stable this year. He has arguably the 3 of the top 5 older males running. · 261 days ago ·

  • CauseForConcern · Probably one fact that's most impressing, is that THAS was one of the early Derby favorites, but after the Florida Derby, Mott had to put him on the shelf. He was patient in bringing him back, and, if Mott ever believed in him, then the horse could be close to being back on course. · 261 days ago ·

With Smith on board MMM, and CE scratched, MMM will win this race today.
Mucho Macho Man established himself as a major player in his division Saturday, taking the lead on the far turn and leaving a stellar field in his wake en route to 2 ½-length victory over Hymn Book in the Grade 2, $350,000 Suburban Handicap at Belmont Park.Read More
If there a fast pace, I am going with closer/midpack types. Hymn Book, Caixa Eletronica, Stay Thirsty. I am very suspect of Mucho Macho Man's ability to get the 1 1/8 distance, same goes for Trickmiester. http://handicrapper.blogspot.com/
