Default How many people have placed their bet on Big Brown to win?

I've never bet horses before and I'm hesitant to bet Big Brown today.

Brown will win. He is out of his league. Even being banged up.

This writer from ESPN believes someone will gang up on the horse and intentionally lose to ensure BB doesn't win...

Quote:
The idea is sinister. It's sporting sacrilege. But it's a question that needs to be asked.

Would someone actually enter the Belmont Stakes with the intention of making massive favorite Big Brown lose the Triple Crown rather than the intention of seeing his own horse win?

"If somebody did something like that," Big Brown trainer Rick Dutrow said, "they might get assassinated after the race."

No telling who might play the role of Jack Ruby in such an instance, but I wouldn't mess with the IEAH Stables outfit. The slicksters had their own security at both of the first two legs of the Triple Crown -- one off-putting aspect of the human connections to Big Brown.

"I just cannot imagine that anybody would go do something stupid just to keep us from winning the race," Dutrow continued.

A family friend of mine knows trainer and owner personally and said he is shady as fukk. It is sick what they are doing to Brownie. He should not even race. I have a strong feeling that something bad is going to happen to him today. It will be pathetic.

Everyone hates BB's trainer. I could see it happen. In fact I hope it happens and I have waited a long time as a horse lover to see a triple crown winner. This is the first year I am hoping the horse loses just because his connections are pure scum.
