After the Derby, it was incredibly painful watching Sportscenter and hearing these "experts" proclaim that the Triple Crown had no chance of occurring because of IHA's 15-1 odds. What a bunch of BS! The Preakness played out similar to the Santa Anita Derby, except that Creative Cause stayed closer to Bodemeister than IHA. I actually thought IHA was beat when Creative Cause beat him around the first turn, but boy was I wrong! This horse is incredible!

I'll have another was a pure equine athlete. Loved the heart of this horse.

As soon as they hit the wire, my dad turned to me and said "that horse is going to win the Kentucky Derby." I'll never be convinced that had I'll Have Another been healthy he would have done anything but win that Belmont.

I'll admit that I'm completely biased when it comes to I'll Have Another, but for the life of me I can't figure out why so many people continue to question him. I've read people saying that he took advantage of an extremely slow pace...I realize Santa Anita is a quick track, but since when are splits of 23 flat and 47 flat extremely slow? IHA had a very nice trip in the three path all the way around, but CC also had a DREAM trip scraping the paint the whole way. Again, I'm biased towards IHA ha.

yeah, I'm not sure why people are giving this horse a hard time by arguing or downplaying facts. He does well... Maybe it's because they can't come to terms that he doesn't cost as much as Bode? $35,000 vs. $100,000? Or he hasn't earned the respect because he's not carrying Hall of Famer jockey Mike Smith?

I can hardly wait the three weeks until IHA proves everyone wrong. I don't think it's going to be easy. Dullahan is clearly a great horse that may also be able to handle the distance, but IHA has more kick and a greater heart. Enough about Mario Gutierrez's lack of experience! With a lesser jock aboard, IHA may not have gotten home in the Preakness. When Mario jerked IHA to the left at the top of the stretch, it got him focused for the drive to catch Bodemeister. IHA responds to his urging.

@samcooper222 12 жыл бұрын

I can see the Preakness going just like the Santa Anita Derby. Bodemeister replaces Blueskiesandrainbows on the lead, I'll Have Another stalks, and Creative Cause attempts to come from a little further back. Bodemeister is tougher to catch, but both Mario and Rosario nab him before the line, running 1-2.

These horses look so much more muscular and healthy than the ones over here in England do. Most racehorses here are skinny, with hardly anything on them. These animals are well built and look very healthy.

He's so good down the stretch! Man wanted to see him in the Belmont smh

@samcooper222 12 жыл бұрын

Watching the Preakness live, I thought Rosario might have out-rode Mario around the first turn when he pushed Creative Cause and angled in front of IHA, to the outside of Bode. After that, it was a flawless ride. Is it premature to compare IHA to Zenyatta? I know their styles are very different, Zenyatta was a true closer. But like Zenyatta, with his long strides, IHA takes a while to build speed and seems to move his fastest at the wire. That's why he's going to be the big favorite in Belmont!

The only thing I can figure is that 11 horses have winning the first two and failing in the Belmont has made them cynical. Racing fans tend to be cynical anyways. The thing no one seems to realize is that it has taken an INCREDIBLE amount of bad luck to preserve the Triple Crown drought for 34 years. For example, Real Quiet lost in 50/50 head bob. I'll Have Another has been long odds in his four wins in large part because he was a longshot winner in his previous race. It doesn't make sense.

broke 17th out ofgate shuffled to the back pinned in on the rail no where to go but then still exploded with horrible trip to run 7th anything close to a clean trip he blows this field away but i do feel bodie is real deal as well many races to go preakness/belmont mid summer classics and b.c. this fall has alot of talent needs to get his head on straight -union rags if does he will achieve what i feel he's capable of him and bode at the top of this class

He had the best shot of any horse and the best pedigree to get the distance since Barbaro to win that Belmont. And even in years before that. You're right, there was no way of knowing for absolute sure if he would win. BUT his chances were superior than many in recent years. His running style was perfect, his pedigree was fantastic for the grueling distance, he was determined and had heart and Mario was a patient jockey, something that many jockeys in the past have lacked on the Belmont stretch.

I'm very thankful they have this race. This way I know who not to take for the Derby. Haven't seen someone hit the money since Giacomo.
