Will we have a triple crown winner this year?

Question

Will we have a triple crown winner this year?

Answer 1

Could have but we will have to wait till june 7th to find out.

Answer 2

I hope so. Big Brown is the only hope we have for a Triple Crown. I believe he can win the Triple Crown. Casino Drive will be his only opponent who could possibly be a challenge. I love Big Brown!

Answer 3

WIN THREE BIG BROWN

YES

Answer 4

Yeah we will, Big Brown will win it all the way!

Answer 5

Given the quality of the also rans in the Derby and Preakness.

It would appear that Big Brown will be 1-5.He does everything asked of him and is still well within himself.I believe we will have a Triple Crown winner after a 30 year draught.The comment after the race will read "As rider pleased".Winning margin if Casino Drive Runs 6 or more lengths. If he does not run pick any double digit number.

We have not seen what he is capable of doing,yet.

Answer 6

Absolutely. There isn't a 3 year old in the country who can beat Big Brown. Something would have to happen for Big Brown to lose.

Answer 7

Gosh I hope so, Big Brown is amazing. But We all thought the same thing with Barbaro, didn't we? So who really knows maybe some horse will take it right out from under him. If we do it will be incredible, 3 decades since the last winner.

Answer 8

I think he has a very good shot but if Casino Drive goes to the Belmont I don't think he's going to have it just handed for him. I think he'll have to work a little harder than he's done so far.

However, I do believe if he does he'll be retired. Not only have I heard rumblings but each out is a risk...and there's far more money in being the only living Triple Crown winner for breeding than if he even won the Travers and Breeders Cup.

Answer 9

There won't be a lack of competition...the field is briskly coming together. Only the distance will defeat Big Brown; it will be a Smarty Jones-styled triple-team, where he's pressured throughout and then has little in the tank for a closer. Besides that scenario, Big Brown wears three crowns.

Answer 10

Judging by the last two races i would say yes.  But, the last race is a mile and a half long.... I hope Big Brown can pull it off!  It would be our first triple crown winner in thirty years!

Answer 11

if nothing goes wrong then yes

Answer 12

we should.

does anyone have any idea of what times big brown is posting?

he is winning by large margins but im not sure he is the best horse  since we had a triple crown winner in 1978.

don't get me wrong i'd love to have a triple crown winner in my lifetime.lol

but is big brown really that good or is the competetion that bad?

Answer 13

Well its been about 3 decades since we have had a triple crown but I think that Big Brown who has won from the outside and middle posts has a great shot and should be able to pull it off.

Answer 14

Big Brown should blow away the Belmont field, his win in the Preakness was pretty effortless.

Answer 15
