Description

There are eight Kentucky Derby refugees poised to enter the gate at Saturday's Belmont Stakes. That in itself is a story, as I can't recall the last time so many that ran on the first day of May came to New York for the finale. Sure, there are always a few that come to the Belmont, and most of those have historically skipped the Preakness, but eight? I don't remember the good old days of the sport, but you've got to believe this is the way it was. The story, though, is that with nothing to gain relative to potential stud fees, there are three colts running in the Belmont that ran in the first two legs of the Triple Crown. Animal Kingdom's great run in Louisville assured his trip to Baltimore. Mucho Macho Man was well rested going into Louisville and in the Derby ran well enough to prompt his connections to ship to Ol' Roundtop. Shackleford ran like the dickens in Derby and nearly held on for a piece. The Shack seemed a good fit for the Pimlico track and they were logical to return. So all three had reasons to ship to Baltimore, but New York?
