A picture-perfect day at Belmont, just two days before the Belmont Stakes. Once again the sun is out and the track was busy. I arrive just in time to see Larry Jones finish a gallop aboard Hard Spun, and he looked strong. I'm a slight believer in karma, so part of me is thinking he could take this one Saturday. Still, the rigors of three races in five weeks, combined with his front-running style, worry me.
Also took some time to walk around the barn area where trainers were conducting various conversations about Saturday's race. It appears to be a pretty clear-cut race: a fair pace early, action around the far turn and see who gets open air down the stretch.
