Gosh dang it!

I'll Have Another has been scratched from running in the Belmont Stakes tomorrow due to a swollen left-front tendon. How disappointing not to have a Triple Crown winner this time around, but they have to do what is best for the horse.

Any favorites out there that you would like to see win the Belmont Stakes now?

This is really shocking and upsetting. I was so looking forward to the Belmont and watching I'll Have Another take it.

I really do not have any other favorites.

I don't have another horse in mind, either. I think a lot of people are disappointed with this news.

Racing is tough on a horse.

Well....it is over for another year. Union Rags took the Belmont race.

A lot of people were disappointed about I'll Have Another, but, still went to the race anyway -- tickets were expensive and reservations were all made, so they stuck with their plans. It still must have been fun, though.

I saw the bay colt win. It is always exciting to see a race.

Until next year then....

If you are planning to attend the Kentucky Derby next year, now is a good time to check about reservations and details. I found a good site where you can do this:

2013 Kentucky Derby

Have fun making your plans.
