Every once in a while, a horse enters the scene that lives up to the hype.  Every year, it seems, a horse wins the Kentucky Derby and catapults himself into the public eye as the next Secretariat.  Some even win the Preakness and really heat up the Triple Crown talk.  Invariably, it ends in disappointment when the horse losses the Belmont.  Make no mistake, these three races are a test!  the Kentucky Derby is like a normal distance race against very good competition.  The Preakness is a sprint in comparison.  Sometimes, very good horses are beaten by a fast horse that has a big day.  This is all followed by the 1 1/2 mile Belmont Stakes, the true test.  Usually, a horse cannot win this race for a variety of reasons.  Either he can't get the distance, he bounces, or he gets into trouble.  Well, I guarantee you right now that Big Brown will win the Belmont and the Triple Crown.  First, he's bred to get the distance, he won the Preakness with a hand ride, and he's just plain too good to get into trouble.  I never fell into the hype with any of the previous Triple Crown contenders.  I knew it was a difficult task.  But this is different.  We're witnessing history.  This horse may be better than, I can't believe I'm going to say it, better than Secretariat.
