Close as I’ve been to it is the New Kent rest stop.

Motel row ‘cross from KRIC in Henrico’s as close as I know. Looked at ‘em when I was thinkin’ ‘bout stayin’ a night for TIB. They’re more expensive than the rooms here ‘n the rooms here ain’t cheap.

Shame.

This one had gathered some dust. I hadn't looked at any 2 year olds since last year. Lack of of decent computer to use. See what i can come up with before the race

They are saying California Chrome might not be allowed to run at Belmont because of his Breathe Right strip.

I an surprized they allowed the breathing strip. Guess protestors were not loud enough. No Restrictor Plate rule

I for one stil don't think it can win. Now that i said that he will.
