seggymon I agree he really is a beautiful horse and he does always seem to be looking happy or that he's enjoying the attention. He looked so relaxed.

Actually adding 1/3 to 3/4 second to his Preakness time would serve to help him. He is a stalking horse with natural speed, the slower the fractions the more he will have left as he nears the finish. If he crashes, you can look at the Quarter Crack and the Abcess. Casino drive also has the rabbit coupled to him in Spark Candle! Look for blistering fractions in the area of 23, 46, 110 playing into Casino and Denis's hands. BB is still the horse to beat, but running 1 1/2 on a sore foot??????????

like dutrow said, Big brown will be in the winner's circle by the time casino drive hit's the quarter pole. ha

BIG BROWN Crashes on Triple Crown Bid
Spare the white carnations and Belmont Breeze on this one. And all because of Kentucky-bred, Japanese-trained spoiler Casino Drive. The cold hard facts support that Big Brown is due for a "slow" race, adding anywhere from 1/3 of a second to 3/4 of a second to his last 1 Mile time of 1:35.72 in the Preakness. Big Brown cycles from fast Mile times (Saratoga) to slow (Gulf) to fast (Florida) to slow (Kentucky) back to his recent fast 1 Mile (Preakness).

What BigBrown fears most--Of late, CasinoDrive has been the closer after the Mile marker. They break even, but CasinoDrive gets to the 1/2 and 3/4 and 1Mile markers before his rival. To compensate, BB would have to make a move from the 1/4 marker to the 1 Mile marker resulting in a disasterous late fade. By the 1 Mile marker, CD is already 1/10 of a second ahead of rival BB. CD makes a move 1:29.00 into the race. BB finds himself losing after 1 1/8 Miles or 9 furlongs (see FloridaDerby).

In the News, there was a disturbing article (more than one) about the BB trainer and how he's been cheating. With drugs, with coming down on crying foul on jockeys (ones that were winning ahead of BB)- among other things. And, if that's what he feels he has to do to win, then fine. Take the crown and go. And if we see his name with Secretariat, we'll say 'yeah, sure..but this is what you did to get it...'
