Belmont Stakes

American Pharoah looks to be the first Triple Crown winner since Affirmed accomplished the feat in 1978.

I'm not a big horse racing guy but I'll be keeping an eye on this race today - Bob Baffert is the LeBron James of horse trainers.

Actually, Baffert is no where near the whiner that James is...

Jockey Victor Espinosa has his 3rd opportunity to ride a triple crown winner.  His previous two attempts have been unsuccessful.

Nipped at the wire for the tri.

That was fun! What a performance.

reminiscent of Secretariat, but not that dominating.

We will get to see AP possible a couple of more times before retiring at the end of the year.  The Breeders Cup Classic should be very entertaining if AP enters and faces older horses.
