American Pharoah appears to be a strong contender for the Triple Crown. I enjoy horse racing but like you, I don't watch it a lot except for the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness and the Belmont Stakes. But from what I've read about him I'd say he's going to do it. He had a bad showing his first time out but has proven himself a winner ever since. With the Preakness he's won 2 for 2 in muddy race tracks so the weather won't be a big factor for him and he's shown he can over come the pre-race distractions like he experienced at Churchill Downs. He's long legged and likes to be in front and with Victor Espinoza in the saddle it's going to be a hard team to beat. Espinoza has 56 major wins since '96 and over 3,000 career wins. Although he's a little heavy on the whip at times he knows how to read the horse's moods and adjusts his strategy accordingly.
