Why is it so hard to win the Preakness and the Belmont stakes in the same year?

First, three year old horses go via the process connected with being nominated on the triple authorize by their owners in reverse they wish to first break their prime and win races in the taste in reverse stakes conditions to even be entered or neglect for Triple Crown races; the races leading up to the Triple Crown races often can feed much exhausted of a young creek horse who hasn't been given a lengthy break or swing out on the farm customary between.

Secondly horses as you probably already know have unified running styles, the Preakness is the shortest connected with the Triple Crown races also the focus is very much on rustle as we saw Rachel Alexandra win wire to wire. The Belmont is the longest connected with the Triple Crown races at a mile also a half and is a test connected with stamina also endurance as prevent on speed.
