You asked if Everlast was going to catch War of Will. The answer is no. Should I have just said no, without elaborating? Was he gaining on him is a different question. He obviously gained on him from the 1/8th pole to the wire. At the 1/8th pole, he was around 3 1/2 lengths back. At the wire he was 1 1/4 lengths back. So, yes he was gaining on him. But no, he wasn't going to beat him.

If you had Everlast in the Preakness then as a Handicappers(this Forum or click)you made one hell of bet because pace or no pace Everlast did not figure in the standard handicapping parlance!
