What a downer
It's not that no one cares who wins today's Belmont Stakes race in New York. But, it's true that a lot less people will be drawn to the show.

I had my own numeric superstition involving I'll Have Another in the eleventh post position. That was linked to the fact that there have been eleven Triple Crown winners in history and eleven horses have gone to the Belmont Stakes since Affirmed won in 1978.

Here is a link to the remaining 11 contenders and their current odds.

With IHA scratched, all I'm left with is choosing the horse in the first post position (Street Life) and the one in the tenth position (Optimizer). That 1 + 10 = 11.  Deep use of logic, right?

For a long shot, I'll go with Guyana Star Dweej,who will be racing from the eighth spot. Doodnauth Shivmangal's choice of Kent Desormeaux  was interesting. Not because he is a Hall of Famer of course, but because of his Preakness suspension. Even a show finish would make for a nice story there.

Those are my top three. Hardly the most brilliant selections. Hardly the most wanted scenario for today's anticlimactic race.
Baseball cards

For those of us who are old enough to remember When Baseball Cards were King, the spring is always a special time of year.

Bygone days spent with elementary school days and family members opening packs of Topps cardboard gold never truly fade away.

Possible history dashed

Triple Crown history won't be made, as I'll Have Another had to be scratched from the Belmont Stakes and retired due to a leg injury.

What a terrible development, to say the least.
Union Rags is now the 3-1 favorite.

Three elevens

These facts matter to people looking for fate:

I'll Have Another has drawn the 11th post position this Saturday.

There have been 11 winners of the Triple Crown in history.

And 11 horses have gone to the Belmont Stakes, since Affirmed won in 1978, with a chance to win the Triple Crown. I'll Have Another will become the 12th.


Upcoming suspension

I'll Have Another's trainer Doug O'Neill's upcoming suspension seems rather curious.

If he really was a cheat, why would he be allowed to take part in the Belmont Stakes? I don't care what convoluted logic is being used to somehow enforce a disciplinary ban for his 'methods', it seems rather fishy to suspend the suspension until after big race. And I don't mean fishy on his part.

Have an excessive amount of competitive juices flowing from all angles basically kept this story going?
