Big Brown arrived at Belmont Park undefeated in five starts, winning all of them by a combined 39 lengths...
...instead of becoming the 12th Triple Crown winner and first in 30 years, Big Brown was the first horse going for a Triple to finish dead last,

do you think the race was fixed? It sounds fixed to me since Da' Tara, the longest shot on the board won.

Absolutely. Kent pulled him up because if a "problem". That horse was bet down to 1-4. Somebody made a ton of money that day. Many common Americans lost mega $$.

Stupid horse race.
