California Chrome was born on an obscure horse farm in the Golden State's Central Valley. Until recently, he trained at California's most famous racetrack. When Hollywood Park closed down, he moved across the Los Angeles Basin to Los Alamitos, a track that's never before caught the attention of the Sport of Kings. Tomorrow, he's favored in New York's Belmont Stakes, and victory would make him the first Triple Crown winner since 1978.
