Triple Crown Preview
As Shay-Shay prepares to leave for another weekend of debauchery in Las Vegas tomorrow he wants to shed some light on the historic weekend that lies ahead. For those of you SportsToilet fans that actually listened to me about my Preakness write-up in regards to Big , you are still relishing the taste of victory. Hopefully you are ready to double uo. The horse racing world has needed a Triple Crown winner for a long time. The last Triple Crown winner came from Affirmed in 1978. After the tragic story of Barbaro and recent passing of Eight Belles the sport needs something so incredible like Big Brown.
The only way Big Brown will lose the Belmont Stakes is if one of the horses runs a race in order to knock Big Brown out of first.(Kind of what Jon Chaney did in that basketball game sending in a player to break that poor college kids arm.) Another horse in this race that is a semi contender is named Casino War. The colt is being flown in from overseas and being pushed into action in one of the biggest races in history. With this lack of experience he will be perfect for a 2ND place finish. That's why if I was a betting man, I would take Big Brown and Casino War to finish 1 and 2 in an exacta bet. Big Brown will blow this field away as soon as he is clear of the railing. So when Big Brown wins the Triple Crown on Saturday, take a look at the television and take a few moments to take it all in, this is history in the making.
