Big Mouth of Big Brown Traininer

God bless Rick Dutrow, he believes in his horse. And I admire his confidence. Nevertheless, he's setting himself up for a huge fall if Big Brown falters in the Belmont.

The jury is still out - maybe forever - as to whether Big Brown ha true Triple Crown talent or is merely the best horse among a very weak bunch of competitors.

Given the lopsided betting on Big Brown expected of many hoping to keep the winning Belmont ticket as a souvenir, we could be looking at this horse going off at 1-10 odds a week from Saturday.
