I keep thinking that this guy runs too hard from gate to wire to make it through the 1 1/2 around the Belmont oval. With SJ's running style, you ned to relax early in the race in order to get the trip.
Then I start thinking about what a freak he is and all the handicapping methods dealing with what it takes to win the BELMONT go out the window. Besides,there's no other 3 yo. good enough to beat him. There will have to be a major regression for any possibility of an upset. If SJ runs even close to any of his races this year, no one else is capable of stepping up their game to that level to deny him.
Good Luck,
