There have only been 11 horses in the history of the universe to ever claim the triple crown of horse racing, which hasn't been done since 1978. Now I'll Have Another has it's shot at history after taking the first two legs of the crown in 2012, with only a victory at the Belmont Stakes standing in it's way. Now the post positions have been released, leaving I'll Have Another in a bit of a tough spot.
