    Its been 37 years since a horse last won the Triple crown so hoping that American Pharoah can win tonight. Definitely the classiest in the field,the question is whether his 3rd race in 5 weeks has taken its toll on him against fresher horses. Has stopped many a contender in the past but I really think AP can do it. Coolmore also will be hoping he can win having acquired breeding rights to him lately. Should he win it would be massive bucks for Coolmore , having been nearly 4 decades since the TC was won.

    Iv backed Frosted - sitting out the Preakness will have a huge benefit in my opinion, and besides American Pharoah, probably the classiest horse running.

    would love to see him do it

    think Frosted will make him work hard for it though, comes here a fresher horse and got a bad trip in CD - stamina laden if AP cracks in the last 2f

    Wouldn't be at all surprised if Mubtaahij springs an upset here.

    Brilliant.If you're going to win a Triple Crown you may as well do it in style. Coolmore will be delighted there. Huge demand for him now as a stallion and even more if he proves a success.

    They have stole a march on godolphin with the breeding rights and snapping up the Aussie horse as well.
    No flies on them.

    Sorry to hear about Pharaoh's defeat last night, owner seemed genuinely devastated and not money related.

    Didn't see race but probably effects of a tough season so far.

    Had a tough battle with Frosted up front. After battling back when Frosted headed him he had nothing left in the tank and Keen Ice picked up the pieces.

    Shame but goes to show how incredible the achievements of Sea The Stars and Frankel were. Those two beat whatever was thrown at them in all sorts of conditions.
