Default Belmont- The graveyard of champions

Posted By: Bob

I'm sure there will be some excuses but the bottom line appears to be that 1) he is not physically hurt (asst. trainer just said so on the radio) 2) he didn't give his bst effort today and 3) he got his butt beat. I can't remember the last time a horse attempting to win the final leg of the Triple Crown gave such a lackluster and flat race. Ever.

Villanova basketball team over GTown, '69 Mets, '69 Jets, '78 Orange Bowl when Arkansas beat 31 point favorite and about-to-be national champ Oklahoma, and now Da' Tara. Just a few of my favorite upsets (I wasn't around in 1915 to watch the Miracle Braves)
