history is in the future!

man... i am getting all teary eyed thinking about this saturday's belmont stakes..

i know... i know... it's a horse race... just a horse race...

WHAT ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!?!?!

this is not just a "horse race" ---- this is a shot at the TRIPLE CROWN!

the triple crown.......

i have been home during both the derby and the preakness, jumping up and down, freaking out, crying - yes. crying... over this horse...

what horse you say?

*sigh* come on... you don't mean to tell me you've come to my site unprepared do you?

smartyjones060504.jpgdoes SMARTY JONES ring a bell!?

for those of you who've come to my site by googling "sporty jones", "jonesy the racehorse", "sparky jones", "fast horse jones smart".... well, thank you for wanting to know about Smarty Jones... it's SMARTY JONES!!!

anyway....

so, smarty is starting from post position #9... eh... i am a little nervous about it, but hey, his trainer - John Servis - doesn't seem to think twice about it:

"I am happy with the post," said trainer John Servis. "We can sit outside of horses and he doesn't have to worry about what is going on outside of him. He just has to worry about what is going on inside of him. He will be able to secure a position going into the first turn."

it's supposed to be muddy and rainy on saturday - but if you remember, the derby was slightly muddy

good luck to the chapmans!!!! good luck to john servis!!!! good luck to stewart elliot!!!! and a hearty good luck and Godspeed to Smarty Jones!!!!!

my buddy chris is heading to the track that day and i gave him $2 to bet on Smarty Jones to WIN... and i told him to bring the ticket back to my unscathed when SJ does win... not to cash it since it'll be a collector's item...

i am heading into nyc tomorrow night thru sunday and will be watching the race in a bar [Scruffy Duffy's: 743 Eighth Avenue (between 46th & 47th)]... and yes.... i KNOW that at some point - even without a pint in me - i will be crying after the race... GOOD TEARS... they have to be... smarty jones is going to bring home the Triple Crown....

he has to.

and it'll be a great date to win the Triple Crown... 06.05.04
