And it's Smarty on the outside ...
Smarty Jones will be starting all the way on the outside this Saturday as he tries to complete the elusive Triple Crown. Despite starting in the ninth post position, Smarty Jones still opened as a 2-5 favorite for the Belmont Stakes. I'm not going to put the jynx on Smarty by making any bold predictions, but I don't think it's any secret who Wild Banshee will be cheering for when the gates fly open at Belmont Park.
