Count Fleet passed away Dec.3'73 thus living 6 months past Secretariat's victory in the Belmont. That chain has now been broken, unless War Emblem can do the seemingly impossible. Either way Slew has passed on before one has come to take his place. I guess we all knew the inevitable would happen, especially at his advanced age...still, it lessens the shock and sadness little." http://forums.about.com/ab-horseracing/messages/?lgnf=y&msg=5362.18 Early Preakness Predictions DEPALMA13 writes, "Booklet couldn't get 1 1/16 because he was running a sub 46 half mile. War Emblem cannot touch that kind of speed. Both horses need the lead. Neither can rate. Booklet will get the lead, and that will be the end of all the War Emblem talk. War Emblem will not rate, just as Booklet won't, and Booklet is a faster horse over a mile. The pace was a fraud on Saturday. Booklet won't let that happen at Pimlico. Neither of these horses will finish better than third in the Preakness." http://forums.about.com/ab-horseracing/messages/?lgnf=y&msg=5348.21 -- SCHEDULES -- Television Schedule What's on TV this week. http://horseracing.about.com/library/bltvsched.htm Stakes Race Schedule Listing of stakes races with purses of $75,000 and up for the next week. http://horseracing.about.com/library/blstakessched.htm -- NTRA Thoroughbred Poll -- NTRA Thoroughbred Racing Poll 05/06/02 HORSE A-S STS-1-2-3 PTS PVS 1.
