In My Opinion

[Mike2220]

Certain Things facor into this Big Brown hoof is nothing it means nothing all it is, is so bettors hesitate a little bit. I f you liked Big Brown in the derby and preakness against those two fields. There is no way to not like Casino Drive. For some reason people are thinking that Big Brown is so special, and he might be. This is the Belmont its like nothing these horses have ever experienced before. Thats why the triple crown is so hard. Pimlico is such a narrow track and then you have to go to Belmont, which is huge. Its better for a horse to have a start there then to come from Pimlico.

i agree it's hard not to be worried with the hoof problem

[Mike2220]

the hoof means nothing, the horse cant feel it i think that was a ploy to get maybe some better odds

[Rhino8266]

Nothing more than a broken finger or toenail. I'm not factoring this into my wagering.

I have done amazing things with busted finger nails, Big Brown can do it!

[paves11]

very true, but when chasing the triple crown i dont think any little issue is a good thing

[dapkavorkian]

I am not saying it is a good thing, but I don't think it will have a negative effect.

We can feel a broken toenail, Big Brown cant feel a thing in the hoof. Its gonna be up to Kent to feel if something is wrong. Look at Dutrow he's too cocky, that hoof was just to try to raise odds
