When Calvin Borel and Jess Jackson decided to race Rachel Alexandra at the Preakness instead of the horse they won the Kentucky Derby with, ‘Mine that Bird’ critics were up in arms calling the decision reckless and disloyal to the world of horse racing for abandoning a shot at the coveted Triple Crown. After Borel won with the new horse at the Preakness however, those critics started singing a different tune and are now eager with anticipation for the Belmont stakes and a potential history making ‘Calvin Crown’. Already the first jockey to win the first two legs of the Triple Crown on different horses, Borel would make history again with a win at Belmont in what is sure to be an exciting match-up between both horses he won with if the two should race.

It’s no surprise to see that Big Brown is a Red-Hot Favorite for Triple Crown Glory in the Belmont Stakes on Saturday with the trick for many horse racing bettors is to get on early enough to get a respectable price from the bookies in the third and final leg of the Triple Crown.
Whilst many expect Big Brown will make light work of his rivals in the Belmont classic despite the dramatic step up in distance, I’m going for the Japanese raider who is bred to run the trip.
Leading online bookmaker BetUS has installed Big Brown a red-hot favorite to become the first horse since Affirmed 30 years ago to take the Triple Crown. Again, I’d be putting my money on the Japanese champion.
BetUS.com is offering new account holders the proverbial leg up with a 100% deposit bonus up to $500 for those wishing to open a new account to bet on Big Brown creating history.
Will Big Brown write his place in history with victory in the “Test of Champions” or will he be found out over the 1 ½ miles of the Belmont?
My tip is that the Japanese raider Casino Drive will be first past the post. Big Brown’s trainer Richard Dutrow has dismissed Casino Drive’s chances, Now, I don’t know the man, but i do know this about the man, he is not the sharpest tool in the shed.
On Breeding alone the horse must be in with an undeniable chance of winning the race. The last two winners of the Belmont, Jazil and Rags to Riches, are a brother and sister to Casino Drive.
The colt never raced as a 2YO suffering injury, has been shipped all over Japan avoiding an Equine influenza outbreak and then travelled 16 hours and then straight into quarantine before stepping out in just his second race start to take out the Peter Pan.
Fact: The Japanese have the best long distance horses on the planet.
One thing that surprises many observers when they watch a Japanese trained horse “work” is that they walk around the track instead of the “traditional” gallop. You can rest assured that the Japanese know what they are doing.
Two Japanese horses did nothing but walk in preparation for a tilt at the 2006 Melbourne Cup a 2 mile race at Flemington Racecourse in Australia. They finished side by side with just the bob of the head separating them on the line, they ran first and second.
The main reason I’m tipping Casino Drive in the big one on Saturday is that he is bred to run the trip. Big Brown has shown brilliance in every start but over longer trips that brilliance isn’t what wins you races unless they jog along. They wont jog along in the Belmont which tilts the odds in favor of the Japanese Raider.
Big Brown demolished his rivals in the Kentucky Derby and he was at it again in the Preakness Stakes leaving his rivals in his wake. You can watch this You Tube video of Big Brown winning the Preakness Stakes. Will he be too brilliant to win the third leg of the Triple Crown or is he that much better than the rest of them that the extra distance won’t matter?
Kentucky Derby winner Big Brown steps out in the 133rd Preakness Stakes at Pimlico Racecourse in Maryland today with the second leg of the Triple Crown seemingly at his mercy.
A dominant winner of the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs, Big Brown is a red-hot favourite with bookmakers to be on track to become the first Triple Crown winner since Affirmed won all three races for the 3YO’s in 1978.

The Richard Dutrow jnr trained Big Brown made a one act affair of the 134th edition of the Kentucky Derby in Louisville, kentucky, by romping to a five length victory from the gallant filly Eight Belles who sadly had to be euthanazed after breaking both ankles on pulling up.
Big Brown created some history in his derby win becoming the first horse to score from gate 20 since 1915 and became the first Kentucky Derby winner with less than five starts to salute the judge first since 1918.
Will Big Brown win the Triple Crown? The only thing I can suggest is that more you put on, the more you will get back. Watch the Big Brown Kentucky Derby You Tube video and make up your own mind.

The Kentucky Derby Betting Odds suggest that the 134th edition of the classic to be run at Churchill Downs, Kentucky is a three horse race with Big Brown at the head of the Kentucky Derby betting odds market from Colonel John and Pyro set to battle out the finish.
Kentucky Derby race favourite Big Brown has drawn out in the carpark or he would be an odds on favourite in the Run for the Roses. Barrier 20 in a field of 20 brings has many suggesting that his three race winning streak will come to an end.
Colonal John has drawn gate 10 and looks the most likely to take out the Blue Ribband event while Pyro is the third elect after his last start failure when 10th. Pyro was the early Kentucky Derby favourite and his gate 9 draw will give his backers a real hope when they thunder down the stretch.

When talking about US Racing one should start with the Triple Crown. The Triple Crown is made up of the Kentucky Derby, at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky, the Preakness Stakes, at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland and the Belmont Stakes, at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York.
The Triple Crown begins with the Run for the Roses at the Kentucky Derby followed two weeks later by the Preakness Stakes before the 3-year-olds head to Belmont Park for the Belmont Stakes.
In the 125 year history of the Triple crown only 11 horses have managed to win all three races.
Triple Crown winners:
1919 Sir Barton
1930 Gallant Fox
1935 Omaha
1937 War Admiral
1941 Whirlaway
1943 Count Fleet
1946 Assault
1948 Citation
1973 Secretariat
1977 Seattle Slew
1978 Affirmed
Smarty Jones was the last horse to win the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness but fall short in the Belmont Stakes (2004).
