    When? Haven't really been into horse racing for a while, but a chance at the triple, especially for such an unlikely cob...is it today?

    Hunch? Length? Pressure? Anti-establishment leanings?

    Didn't think this horse racing was that popular but i didn't have a crowd here until this damn thing came on. Now everyone is glued to the TV.

    I know it has to be because of the undefeated aspects and triple crown.
