who won ?

Chrome does have a shot. He is a speed horse that rates & that is one of the most important factors in the 1 1/2 Belmont.
People have spent millions trying to come up with a horse that has the talent to win any of the races of the Triple Crown. In race horses, they have computer programs, DNA printouts & every stud's record on what they have reproduced, trying to breed winners.
Most of the show horses are race horses that never ran hard enough to hurt their selves. The only horses that are bred to be show horses would be the warm bloods, Irish sport horses, & horses that excelled in the hunter jumper or dressage events.
All that being said, only 3 other horses that were in the Derby were also in the Preakness. Guess where the others are. They are already at the Belmont, resting, prepping for the big race. No doubt about it, when you run those big races, it takes a lot out of a horse. Glad they have three weeks to rest Chrome.
It is past time for a Triple Crown winner but with better horses being bred every year it is much more difficult. Now with all that money being spent on breeding the best of the best, here comes a horse out of a cheap mare, with a sire that is only a $2500.00 stud fee & he has already won two of the Triple Crown races. So much for all the Scientific breeding.lol Just goes to show you, freaks or phenoms do pop out on occasion.
Go California Chrome.
