Boscar,
Then by all means, after the race one of us will be right and the other totally full of s##t.
I have much more creative ways of betting the race than selling tickets on ebay.

Second time firm is a great angle.

Maybe it was \"Victor-on\" for which there is a designation.
Maybe Victor is a better jockey than given credit and the horse likes him.
Maybe Victor\'s been carrying the buzzer.
Maybe the horse finally got fixed whatever was bothering him over the summer causing the layoff lines.

For the record, Sherman did NOT say it moved him up 5-6 lengths. He said \"it\'s not as if...\"

Whatever the reason, there appears to be the potential for it to be something other than \"strips-on\". And whatever it was/is has enhanced his performance figures. Regardless, he\'s beaten me twice and I\'m not going to the funeral in 3 weeks so he may beat me thrice.

Good luck -- Patrick

Wow. If you can get 10-1 on Chrome on eBay tickets, sounds like you can arbitrage your bets on all horses and guarantee a profit on the Belmont. Interesting math problem but doubt it\'s true.

Mike-- You\'re either going to include a disclaimer or use your full name. Because I run the board under my real name and they know where to find me.

I\'ll help out my paisano (friend not the pizza joint) Mike; for those of you whom do not know him he is 100 % Italian as am I.

However I must recommend that his fellow Staten Islander Richiebee immediately enroll and sponsor him in a diversity and sensitivity training program. It\'s touchy feely school for Miff!

I can\'t speak for you , but I wouldn\'t consider you totally full of sh&t if CC wins the Belmont.

 Partially, maybe.

Alan \"outed me\" long time ago. Was obviously said tongue in cheek.

I didn\'t hear one thing about the nasal strip until after the Preakness.

  Now it\'s overshadowed the slow Derby and the Triple Crown itself in importance (by post count).

  Can\'t make this stuff up.

Thanks for setting me straight, and apologies to the OP for inference of erroneous title.  The real problem, however, is I can\'t get that damn song out of my head.

Anyone watching the Ranger game? Eddie Olcyk just mentioned the \"Breathe Right\" issue for CC as part of the color commentary (around 11:45 in the 3rd period).  Last night \"Nasal Strips\" were listed as the #6 trending topic on Yahoo.  Seems like the general public is pretty well engaged in this topic.  Good for the sport - even better for betting the Belmont...
