AWWWWW, WHAT THE FU**

Meh, I generally don't root for horses to win the Triple Crown, or for that matter, any athlete to accomplish any landmark feats.

I figure the less often it happens the more prestigious it is when it does.

(yes, I am fully aware that we havn't had a Triple Crown winner since about 1978)

I rooted for Smarty because of what he did at Preakness.

That was fucking insane. 11 1/2 lengths. Wow.

Hence, when he started to pull away, I assumed he had it won. Because a horse who won by 11 1/2 lengths couldn't possibly blow the lead.

Right?
