Guess had outstanding work/gallop out this morning....all thats left is if he handles BIG SANDY !!!

Per Welsch - DRF

[h=2]American Pharoah... WOW!![/h] Hard to find any better description for AMERICAN PHAROAH's performance this morning. Breezing five furlongs with Martin Garcia up, his final Belmont work couldn't have been any more perfect, five furlongs in 1:00.08 as easy as he pleased with a tremendous gallop out, six furlongs in 1:12.82, seven eighths in 1:25.94, up a mile in n 1:39.59, AP seemingly getting stronger the further he went while giving the appearance that he was just galloping the entire way. All he seems to need now in New York is a clean trip to complete his Triple Crown sweep in the Belmont.
more details later on drf.com

We've been here before and that's the only reason I'm hesitant.

Big Brown closed at odds of 3/10 in 2008 and Smarty Jones was 2/5 in 2004.

Still unknowns, track and distance.

Major plus is extended forecast calls for 50% chance of rain on Thurs, Fri, Sat....might be a slop fest and we've seen the Rebel and Preakness.

Pilot error is another way to lose the mile-and-a-half Belmont Stakes.

See Desormeaux and Elliot.

I'm in the minority but i disagree with this. Desormeaux on Real Quiet and Elliot on Smarty Jones both put their horses is good positions and both had leads midway down the stretch. Their horses had every chance to win. It would be a different story if they got their horses blocked or impeded.

Don't forget that American Pharoah's daddy Empire Maker won a Sloppy Belmont Stakes in 2003

I felt Desormeaux panicked inside the final eighth of a mile.

The more he asked, the less Real Quiet gave.

Real Quiet looked home-free at the head of the stretch.

Why not sit still?

As for Stewart Elliot, he found the one thing, a pace confrontation, he had to avoid.

Re: All Systems Go for American Pharoah's Triple Crown Bid

Of all the recent close calls to win the triple crown, I thought Big Brown was the surest to do it. The horse was special, raced twice after being pulled up that day and won them both.

Re: All Systems Go for American Pharoah's Triple Crown Bid

all you have to know about this horses chance is that Brock says he's a lock with no competition

American pharaoh is going down. Mile and a half will get him.. He's not gonna be allowed to have harness-like middle of the race fractions like he did in the Preakness.

Right now the field is at +103 on 5dimes. I'm gonna wait and hope I can get +125 or so--- it'll be a bargain

Right now the fie close to the best you will get (I really think +125 at 5dimes is a for sure no chance price) unless of course materiality declares out for some reason which is a tiny whisper rumor right now..

not sure what happened last post

should read more like

Right now the best price offshore is +110 at hollywoodsportsbook and that family on the NO.... I think that will be or remain super close to the best you will get off shore, (I really think +125 at 5dimes is a for sure no chance price) unless of course materiality declares out for some reason which is a tiny whisper rumor right now..

I won't know until the field is drawn. I do think there will be correlated vertical wagers available, but again I have to see the draw 1st.

Carpe diem and truth or else didn't have much of a chance. Doesn't affect anything.

Materiality makes it a 3 horse race, and I think the distance is good for mubtaahij
