Anyone else watching?
Watching it on tv instead of going to it this year. Live literally 5mins away but the traffic is god awful and makes me not want to leave my house
Yea, they said 120k were there
Watching, fucking HYPED AND I DONT KNOW WHY
Not gonna win it
Still early, but yea, hes back a decent distance
He fell off at the end =(
But damn, the winner was fucking close
Whelp, that was anticlimactic.
They're gonna put that nigga down lol
I feel like a long shot always wins at belmont
Owner be pissed lol
Man. He's mad lol, but I do kinda agree cause some of these horses aren't even raced until the Belmont so they're super fresh vs the other horses who raced the first two legs.
^ Because of what he was saying; mad or not. Some of these horses are fresh as hell coming into this race lol
Hasnt it always been that way though?
They already amended the rules specifically for Cal. Chrome for this race as it was
I *think*? I do know back in the 70s when a triple crown actually happened, things were a little different. Overall, I just think all the press, much like with anyone/thing going after records is what got to him and the rest.
California Interner Explorer
Oh yea, also loved when the owner snapped back at his wife on national tv loool
I'm honestly happy the horse didn't win. While I think its a great story that they bought the horse for 10k, the owners drove me nuts calling themselves dumbasses.
Jockey gave it a great ride, perfectly positioned to mount a charge coming in to the straight but got nothing when he asked the question. Didn't see the owners rant but sounds like they are real dumbasses. From his breeding California Chrome really shouldn't have been able to race above 7 furlongs, the triple crown is meant to be hard and winning even 2 legs gives him great stud value.
Epsom Derby yesterday was won by Australia. Looks one hell of a horse and hardly had to exert himself to win a very strong renewal of the race. Think he will certainly be at the Breeders Cup and wining easy.
