NEW YORK (AP) -- It was a great start to the day for Barn 26, the Belmont home for California Chrome. Unfortunately, the Triple Crown hopeful fell short.
I had the honor of interviewing potential triple crown winner California Chrome today. Not the owners, not the jockey, but the horse. We spoke about a variety of things leading up to his big race on Saturday.
Check out what he had to say below...
Palace Malice took charge on the turn for home and won the Belmont Stakes on Saturday, holding off Preakness winner Oxbow and Kentucky Derby winner Orb.
Union Rags nipped Paynter at the wire in a photo finish to win the Belmont Stakes on Saturday, beating a field without Triple Crown hopeful I'll Have Another who was retired with an injury.
I'll Have Another will not lead the post parade of horses before the Belmont Stakes, but there will be a retirement ceremony for the Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner in the Belmont Park winner's circle.
I'll Have Another's bid for the first Triple Crown in 34 years ended shockingly in the barn and not on the
racetrack Friday when the colt was scratched the day before the Belmont Stakes and retired with a swollen tendon.
New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo is urging both sides to resolve a labor dispute that's threatening to scratch I'll Have Another's chance of winning thoroughbred racing's first Triple Crown in more than 30 years.
