i'd be more concerned about that if he breezed 6 or 7f six days prior, but this was just right, I think.
how many of them had raced 9.5f three weeks prior and 10f five weeks prior?
same here, notifications have been as spotty as my handicapping as of late, haha!
the horse has to run at belmont ahead of time as well as the jock. i'll have doesnt have that going for him, even though gutierrez will pick up mounts before the stakes. paynter may prove the best 3yo in the crop, but he too misses out on this.
the one fact i keep going back to is all eleven t.c. winners ran at belmont before june of their 3-yo season. i think that matters a lot.
i'm more worried about unstoppable u than i am union rags, and unstoppable u does not not worry me in the least.
Right now it's impossible to say and i'm sure his handlers arent thinking that far forward, but with the breeder's cup at s.a. this year it's hard for me to think they'd retire i'll have another before that weekend.
