Ya never know how the horse will come back after only a two week break. On another note.. hopefully Pimlico works out their starting gate issues. I think they have had 3 races as no contests because of that. They only had all winter to make sure they were working properly

Could you even imagine.....a starting gate malfunction in the second leg of the Triple Crown.....the only thing that could be worse is a horse going for the TC, being impacted/hindered by a starting gate malfunction, and then horse goes off and wins the Belmont. Ucch! What a nightmare. LOL.

I doubt 1/ST checks anything--they are getting out

. Laurel has been sold and closing in 2027, there will be year round racing at Pimlico (minus the 2-3 weeks they have the state fair at Timonium.)

Pimlico is being torn down starting the day after this years Preakness and a new, modern facility will be built.

I have  attended about 5 Preakness'--and will miss the historic, outdated, unsafe building

Trade that 19 post for something better, and I believe Baeza would have won the Derby, as he was only a fraction from getting 2nd.
he was coming with a ton of speed
