Don't jinx him! Actually, he might pull an Afleet Alex and win anyway.

Beyer only gave him a 99 for his Derby.

I guess he was slow that day.

99 in the Derby. I thought it was 101, too, and maybe it was for a minute.

So 109-99-108-101-101.

Yup, slow time.

Bodemeister with 6 career starts 82-101-101-108-99-109 has a Career Beyer AVG of 100.00

Very few if any make this list...I believe he's by himself for 1st 6 and there are few if any that have a career 100+...Ghostzapper???????

Maybe in the past... two years or so. A surprising number of horses can boast that accomplishment- I randomly pulled up the past winners of the Classic, and many of them qualified. Still, few horses start out there career with numbers like that. Clearly a pretty special animal.

No, highly doubt Bodemeister is unique in this regard. Medaglia D'Oro (whom this horse's pattern reminds me of, actually) off the top of my head ran a 100+ in his 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 7th starts (the 1st being his first maiden attempt, the 5th his abysmal Preakness effort) and I'm not sure he ran a sub-100 speed figure after the Preakness. He also definitely had a career 100+ average.

Curlin went 102-99-105-98-111-107-105-114-119-(130+)-(131+)-110-104-112-106 for his career.

I'm not sure what Formal Gold's 3yo season looked like, but he's Beyer's poster boy for a massive debut, getting a 112 to start his career. I don't think he ran many sub-100 figures.

Meanwhile, many many champion horses had a 100+ career average. Special, but not extraordinary.

How many make the list and lose 4 of the 6 starts?

[LarrytheK]

Macleams Music has the highest career BSF avg 114.00

Too Bad it was 1 race

Hah, this is kind of like that stat Matt C brought up about having a Triple Crown winner never go off as the favorite in any of his races. I'm sure the Belmont will change this, but the stat's intact so far.

Dullahan is going to get a LOT of play from the press. He seems ideal for this distance and will be fresh after sitting out the Preakness. He may be close in the morning line.

I would bet all the money I have ever had that that is not the case.

I would bet all the money I have ever had that that is not the case.

The number of souvenir $2 tickets makes it almost impossible for any other horse besides the Derby/Preakness winner to be favored in a modern triple crown race. I can't imagine Dullahan will be any less than 5/1, especially with Union Rags showing up.

[ElPrado1]

Gonna carry Union Rags across the finish line? He isn't bred for the Belmont. He's barely bred to go a mile, and now he's going to be some kind of a phenomenon in the Belmont?
