Any thoughts on these possibles for Belmont?
MONARCHOS
INVISIBLE INK
THUNDER BLITZ
Point Given - long stretch at Belmont to be his undoing?
IT'S SO SIMPLE
DR GREENFIELD
BALTO STAR - after Derby had mild heat stroke
BUCKLE DOWN BEN
DAYTON FLYER
E DUBAI
A P VALENTINE
DOLLAR BILL
Late closers for Belmont or speed horses?
Did A P Valentine show himself in the Preakness? What was wrong with Point Given? He looked loaded in shots before the race. Congaree has trouble with anything over 1 1/8. Dollar Bill? Griffinite can run, for a while. Monarchos? A P Valentine seemed to have picked up the pieces of a lackluster race and in the process ran the best race of his life. Previous to the Preakness, A P Valentine had never earned a three figure Beyer speed figure, and I'm sure he earned one in the Preakness. But remember the last time this horse ran an amazing race and remember the next race he ran? I don't see a repeat of the same performance. A P Valentine is not inconsistant." My thoughts, but it is early yet.
