NEW YORK -- Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner California Chrome has galloped his usual 2 miles at Belmont Park, and new horses are lining up to challenge his Triple Crown bid in the Belmont Stakes. Nicolas Hague Jersey . Assistant trainer Alan Sherman says the chestnut colt looked strong on Wednesday. California Chrome will try to become racings first Triple Crown winner in 36 years when he runs in the Belmont on June 7. The field for the 1 1/2-mile race has added three horses: Matterhorn, Matuszak and Medal Count, who was eighth in the Derby. Matterhorn and Matuszak are newcomers to the Triple Crown trail. Other probables are Derby runner-up Commanding Curve, Commissioner, Preakness runner-up Ride On Curlin, Samraat, Tonalist, and Wicked Strong, who was fourth in the Derby. Kid Cruz, eighth in the Preakness, is a possibility. Samraat was fifth in the Derby, while Commissioner and Tonalist are newcomers to the Triple Crown races. Sherman says it will be a tough race, but thinks if California Chrome runs his usual race the colt will win. California Chrome is scheduled for his only official workout before the Belmont on Saturday, with jockey Victor Espinoza coming in from Southern California. Shea Theodore Jersey . -- Southern Illinois coach Barry Hinson couldnt hear himself amid the roar in Koch Arena, so he kept stomping on the floor in a fruitless attempt to get his teams attention. Paul Stastny Jersey . Footballs governing body said Tuesday that of the 2,577,662 tickets allocated for this years tournament, 1,041,418 have gone to people in Brazil. The U. https://www.cheapgoldenknights.com/196n-tomas-tatar-jersey-golden-knights.html .5 million. University officials released the term sheet signed by Harsin Wednesday, the day the former Broncos walk-on player and Boise native was named the successor to Chris Petersen, who left for Washington last week.KAMLOOPS, B.C. - Damage to a fish habitat should cost the millionaire owner of two hockey teams and his company $300,000, a Crown lawyer has told a sentencing hearing.Digby Kier said Tom Gaglardi had no regard for a fish habitat when he renovated his vacation home on Kamloops Lake in 2010.Gaglardi, who owns the NHLs Dallas Stars and the WHLs Kamloops Blazers, and Northland Properties were each convicted in August of two counts of harmful alteration of a fish habitat a€” 2,400 square metres of shoreline area.The work involved a five-bedroom, two-bathroom addition to an existing bungalow known as Toms Shack and included extensive landscaping work, a 50-vehicle parking lot and the construction of a boat launch.Both defendants were well aware they were trying to keep a low profile and, if they got caught, they were going to seek forgiveness, Kier said Friday.Thats what you have today a€” them seeking forgiveness, he told provincial court Judge Stephen Harrison.Show this corporation and Tom Gaglardi that they cannot ride roughshod over the laws of Canada and escape without anything being done to them.Kier said Kamloops Lake is a significant stop for juvenile salmon on their way from the Interior to the Pacific Ocean. Its the last lake on the Thompson River system before flowing into the fast-moving Fraser River, he noted, and is an important feeding stop for young salmon.Kier said neither Gaglardi nor Northland obtained a building permit for any of the renovation work, adding it will take 40 to 50 years for the fish habitat to return to its healthy state. Defence lawyer Rob Bruneau said a $300,000 fine is excessive given previous sentences for similar offences and asked for a fine of $50,000 to $75,000.Mr. Gaglardi should not be penalized for his financial set in life, Bruneau said.Just because were dealing wiith an extremely wealthy family doesnt mean we should raise the fine. William Karlsson Jersey. Bruneau said Gaglardis embarrassment by the trial should be a factor in sentencing.Certainly, in the court of public opinion, he will continue to suffer because of these circumstances.A $300,000 fine was the maximum allowed under the Federal Fisheries Act when the offences took place. It is now $1 million.During his trial, Gaglardi attempted to pin the blame for the work on ex-Northland employee Jim Parks.However, Parks testified he was just following orders, which ultimately came from Gaglardi.Parks said he was ordered to throw his computer hard drive in the lake once federal authorities began investigating the renovation work.He testified he was also asked to remove Northlands logo from the site blueprint.Kier described the work, and the attempted coverup, as the blatant, blatant, blatant actions of a privileged family.Really, it strikes to the very heart of what society expects of corporate citizens and private citizens who have done so well. This was a very massive, massive endeavour by the corporation and Tom Gaglardi to make this thing a showpiece on the lake, Kier said.Theyre going to have 50 parking spots and sweeping views of the area a€” and nothing for the fish. The fish were compromised and they still are.During the trial, Gaglardi often appeared unfazed by the proceedings and was seen jotting down Dallas Stars line combinations in a notebook and attempting to hide the use of his iPhone from court sheriffs.The Crown also asked for an order that would have the fine go toward protecting salmon in the Interior.Court heard Gaglardi has spent $80,000 on remediation since 2010.The judge reserved his decision, and lawyers will be back in court on Oct. 23 to set a date for sentencing.
