Go for it "Smarty"...

The entire Delaware Valley will be pulling for "Smarty Jones" in the Preakness on Saturday. In the spirit of, and in the showdow of the recent film SeaBiscuit, this is a true "from the other side of the tracks" sentimental favorite. Who in the Pensylvania area is NOT pulling for this horse to win ?

This horse is un-defeated... and is already starting to make history. The question is can he run in the shadow of Seattle Slew who pulled off the triple crown without ever loosing a race before receiving it ! It will be very interesting to see what happens.
Smarty Jones primed for `toughest race'

"I think this is the toughest race he's had," Smarty Jones trainer John Servis said. "To come out of the biggest race of his life and run in just two weeks against the same horses is difficult enough. Then you throw in the three or four fresh horses and kind of put the bull's-eye on our back, I think he's going to have to step his game up."- John Servis
