Hey Real, i don't as of this minute. i just started really checking into these races, but i am really surprised that Makin chose the Classic. This might be a good sign though. Terrible post!!!!!! At Belmont, the 1 1/4 mile races on the Dirt start about 3/4 of the way on the Clubhouse Turn making the race a one and 3/4 turn race as opposed to two turns. The Belmont oval is the largest in the United States and is known as "Big Sandy". I have to check all the past BC's held at Belmont but I do remember that UNBRIDLED won this race here from the same outside post after all the talk was about how hard it was to win from there on this course. The truth is, that pp can lose a horse a hell of a lot of ground, but it looks like STARCRAFT is more of a closer type since going to Europe. In our form it looks like he was a more on the pace runner, but after their mistakes with ALINGHI, I hardly trust them. I thought he was a HUGE chance of winning the mile. I don't know about the first on the dirt and in North America. I hope he likes the mud also. It has been raining for almost all of October on the North East coast here. The DRF.COM site has video replays of alot of the prep races for the BC for FREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
