Not the second fastest Belmont. Easy Goer and another horse, That's skipping my mind did the Belmont in 2:26 flat. But American Pharoah had the second fastest Belmont of all the triple crown winners.

Yup,

Just beautiful. Just beautiful.

Well, my picks would have been AP and Frosted with Mubtaahij and Madefromlucky...but there is no way I would have seen Keen Ice.

One big irony here is that 2 of the top 3 finishers trained at Churchill Downs.

So much for the notion that you had to train at Belmont to do well there.
