UPI Thoroughbred Racing Roundup
Ruler On Ice not only pulled an upset in the Belmont Stakes Saturday, he also put the 3-year-old championship picture right into the Mixmaster.
With three different winners in the three Triple Crown races, the Eclipse Award remains up for grabs. And, on the morning after the Belmont, it sounded very much like the big races at Saratoga might have something to do with unsorting the puzzle.
Ruler On Ice seemed an unlikely story in the Belmont, having skipped the first two Triple Crown events in favor of comparatively minor races in New Mexico and Maryland. But trainer Kelly Breen added blinkers Sunday, the colt obviously liked the sloppy track at Belmont Park and, perhaps most important, Breen said his previously sub-par bloodwork had improved significantly in the weeks leading up to the big race.
With all that working, Ruler On Ice, under Jose Valdivia Jr., stayed close to the pace set by Shackleford, got to the front a furlong out and held off Stay Thirsty to win by 3/4 of a length in 2:30.88. Brilliant Speed, Nehro, Shackleford and Animal Kingdom completed the top six.
Shackleford, the Preakness winner, simply ran out of gas with a furlong left in the 1 1/2-mile "Test of Champions." Animal Kingdom was effectively eliminated when he clipped heels a few jumps after the start and stumbled, nearly losing rider John Velazquez.
"I don't think anybody could put into words or make any calculations for what helped him or what hurt anybody else," Breen said of the 24-1 upset. "That's racing. And that's why they run the races. I've been saying that since I've been in the business. If it wasn't, every 4-to-5 shot would just win. You've got to be in it to win it, and I was more than happy to be in it."
At the barn Sunday, Breen reported Ruler On Ice, a Kentucky-bred gelding by Roman Ruler, "is acting great. I'm shocked to say this morning that he looks as if he didn't even run. I'd have to think that's a pretty good sign."
Breen reported owner George Hall said he would "love" to see Ruler On Ice contest the $1 million Travers at Saratoga Aug. 27. But he did not commit to that race and he is based at Monmouth Park, which offers the $1 million Haskell Invitational July 31.
If that's where the Belmont winner goes, he could face some of the same rivals he beat in Saturday's slop.
Barry Irwin, who manages Animal Kingdom, said he originally hoped to bring the Derby winner back to the turf this summer, possibly at Arlington Park. But after the Belmont debacle, he said, "I don't know now. We want to make this horse the champion … . He's probably the leader of the 3-year-old class now but he's no cinch to be champion. So I think we're going to have to put him where he can solidify that. We're going to have to take a look at the Travers.
