Saturday in may when we hear that infamous call "and down the stretch they come" hopefully this year with my horse coming in first, seen thru a sea of ridiculess hats you know what I'm talking about. I love the "Triple Crown", I was lucky to see three triple crown winners-Affirm, Seattle Slew and the one and only, the truth and will always be the champion-Secretariat. I saw Secretariat run at Arlington Park, it was a overcast day and after he dispatch his competition a ray of sunshine beamed down on this horse and it was like something divine. What this horse did I don't think we will see again. Its the way he did it. Winning the Preakness by 31 lenghts, thats unheard of, I saw that race on tv and after that race I knew i had seen something out of this world. My favorites of all time Secretariat, Seattle Slew, Affirm and Spectacular Bid. Spectacular Bid I believe would have been a triple crown winner if it weren't for his foot injury he suffered going into the Preakness, and still finished strong.
"Hold Me Back" seems appropriate since I'm a Bulls fan, thats the name of the horse I think is gonna win. Who do you like? Don't forget the Bulls and Celtics. Go!
