Pleasantly Perfect added a second victory in Santa Anita's/Oak Tree's Goodwood Handicap (then a Grade 2) by wearing down a stubborn Fleetstreet Dancer in the 2003 edition of the race. In his following start, Pleasantly Perfect used similar closing tactics to take the Breeders' Cup Classic, also at Santa Anita. Alex Solis rode for Hall of Fame trainer Richard Mandella. Fleetstreet Dancer would also go on to land a big prize, upsetting the Japan Cup Dirt two starts later.

The top three once more delivered a formful race, outrunning the leading outsider, Touch Gold, who did not appear in the Derby and who stumbled badly at the start of the Preakness. He closed to finish fourth, within 1 1/4 lengths of the three front-runners flying at the head of the field of 10. 'And we're going for the Triple Crown,'' shouted Bob Lewis, the California beer distributor who owns Silver Charm with his wife, Beverly. ''We need this badly in thoroughbred racing. May the best horse win at Belmont Park.'' Silver Charm is the first horse to have a chance at the Triple Crown in the Belmont since 1989, when Sunday Silence lost the Belmont to Easy Goer, whom he had outrun in the Derby and the Preakness.
