    Chrome might not run for the Triple Crown if the stewards at Belmont don't let him wear a Breathe-Right strip.

      Just Saw That

      I was just watching an on-line video on the controversy, which seems to be much ado about nothing. They give the horse a shot of something -- no. They put a piece of tape on his nose? You're kidding, right?

      Come on, New York -- (ready for this?) -- get off your high horse and wise up before you're publicly drawn and quartered by the people who have waited nearly four decades to see another Triple Crown winner!

        Great point and it's not a theory

        which one of the pissy little jockeys will try to deny California Chrome a shot an immortality because he comes from the wrong side of the tracks, just as it happened to Smarty Jones in 04. Jerry Bailey on Eddington and Alex Solis riding Rock Hard Ten screwed Smarty on the backstretch and dashed any hopes of winning.

        I hope this year's run at Belmont is honest. Let the best nag win regardless of heritage.

            Where'd you hear that bull? They are going to let the horse wear the strip.

              Well, Gee, Boss...

              ...considering you post a story that was on line about an hour AFTER I posted mine, I was obviously quoting a report that was up to the minute at that time.

              But thanks for the update.

                Wow, didn't see that coming so fast. Two years ago they told the trainer for I'll Have Another they couldn't run with the strip.

                            Pardon my ignorance

                            But do these west coast horses "fly home" in between the Triple Crown races or do they stay on the east coast the entire time ?

                              They stay put.

                              California Chrome remained in Kentucky for a week and then shipped to Pimlico. His connections will likely take the same approach with shipping to Belmont.

                              The biggest question regarding this horse was how he would ship from California to Kentucky. He answered that question with a Derby win.

                              After that it's the same trailer trips horses have been doing for over 100 years.

                                I read the same in an AP report in today's PRINT EDITIONS about three hours before you regurgitated it and tried to pass it off as "up to the minute"...sheesh...this is why the call you "Scoop." Talk about a Franco.
