Who will win the Belmont?
Sun May 17, 2009
- MTB was forced wide and bumped at the top of the stretch and still almost caught her. 70 yards more and we have a different winner. The long stretch at the Belmont is perfect for MTB. I think they would be foolish to run Rachel, but if they do she'll show at best.

- Mine That Bird was forced wide and bumped in the stretch. 70 more yards and he'd have caught her. Belmont stretch will be the difference.

Your logic is way off my friend. Borel had to start from PP 13 and go 5 wide to the 1st turn before finally saving some ground at 3 wide. If this Filly gets a mid to inside post and can save a bit more ground at 1 and a half - neither the 70 yards you mention or the extra 5/16 of a mile is going to matter. In other words the Filly had to make 3 big moves - right from the gate as well the 2nd q alongside the pace setter, before she flattened out in 3q and then came again at the far edge of the backstretch - never mind hanging on. Lost in all the MTB hullabaloo is the incredibly uneven splits this filly ran at 5 and 3 and then 2 wide. This is not to say that MTB will not win the Belmont - he is perfectly capable and bred for distance - just as are Flying Private, Chocolate Candy, Charitable Man and his brother Summer Bird. I doubt the filly will play in this one - Jackson is more concerned about keeping her safe for stud work with Curlin.but if she does run.... it will be interesting to watch. Don't forget rags to riches!
