5/19 (PIM): Preakness Day

There wasn't anything wrong with the Jose ride on GM.
If he doesn't go with Justify early,who does ?
And then what do you have ?
The best 3yo since Pharoah loose...……..making an uncontested lead on a surface he loves ?
At least GM had a small chance of winning pushing Justify early.
If he doesn't engage him hard from the jump,he has no chance.

Good Magic's race positions were 2,2,2,2,4 ....lost by a length. Being on the rail with justify with you every step, I would say he ran a damn good race.

What do we make of Bravazo’s finish in here? Seemed done around the far turn. Dropped back to 5th, 7 lengths back at the top of the stretch and finished just a 1/2 length back at the wire.

Could anyone actually tell where he really was top of the stretch? Seven lengths seems unlikely.

Regardless, Bravazo ran OK, but was fourth best, and benefitted from Good Magic's taxing trip dueling inside and Tenfold moving too soon.
