Back in 1999 - Lemon Drop Kid (LDK) won the Belmont at 29-1. I'm not saying Dornoch is going to win the Belmont....but there are some very interesting similarities with Dornoch and LDK. *Both LDK and Dornoch were good 2 year olds. LDK won a minor race in Feb. 1999 at GP, Dornoch won the FOY at GP in early March. LDK finished 5th in the Bluegrass, Dornoch finished 4th in the Bluegrass. LDK finished 9th in the Derby, Dornoch finished 10th in the Derby. *IF Dornoch regains his form and gets a good trip (which he should in post #6) - could he be the LDK of the Belmont? We know Dornoch is a fighter = Remsen stakes. Just something to think about, as you never in this race.
@roblegg3983. LDK was a deep closer who did his best running late. The 12 Fs played to his strength. Dornoch was sideswiped hard by Mystik Dan at the start of the KYD and lost all chance, but he is an early/presser type who has shown little in three starts as a 3YO. Don't see it.

@LABoyko Dornochs only chance is to do a one run late. If he is up front he won't win or finish in the money
@@LABoykohad the Trifecta…. Dornoch!!!
Truly Enjoy your work and banter. Top Notched 🏇💰
It will be a contested lead STG, Dornoch, Mindframe will all be contesting for the lead.

Change the bit, change the pilot, change everything. At some point the experts will realize SL is not the second coming of Arcangelo.
