Racecar Rhapsody doubtful for Belmont
Trainer Kenny McPeek said Racecar Rhapsody, who ran fourth in the Preakness, ate well after the race and looked good early Sunday morning when he was shipped back to Louisville. McPeek added that he might also consider running Racecar Rhapsody in the Belmont.
“We’re not going to rule it out right now, but it depends on who’s going,” McPeek said. “Right now, I’d say we’re doubtful.”
Racecar Rhapsody turned in his fourth consecutive fourth-place finish.
“We were proud of his effort,” the trainer said. “We were really hoping to get at least second, but that didn’t happen. I don’t know how much he got beat for second, but it wasn’t much. Other than not getting up for second, he ran well.”
