The best Beyer was IHA at 109 in the Preakness. The only horse with a 3 figure Beyer is Paynter With a Beyer of 107 in an allowance race. Also had 100 in a Derby Prep at CD.

Paynter also should be considered because he could be lone speed. The only other horse with speed is Unstoppable U. This horse though has the 12 post and only has a Beyer of 82 making him a lot slower then the rest of the field.

And the last time a speed horse won a major US race at a mile-and-a-half wa-a-a-asss.....?

Never bet speed in the Belmont, OK? (My good deed for the day, saved you the cost of a bad wager)

You are absolutely right. No other colt in this race has put up one triple digit Beyer, let alone two. Paynter is from a Breeders Cup Classic winner and is a grandson of the sire of two time BC Classic winner Tisnow.
Great trainer, lonesome speed, runs a new top...take 7/2 and laugh all the way to the bank.
