I thought Echo Sound looked pretty good in there but my more interesting opinion, and Steve has her second...if you draw a line through the last in the slop, cutting back to probably a better distance G W'S Girl looks pretty good no?

It's certainly not the event CD/NYRA put on but I actually think these cards are pretty intriguing from a handicapping/betting point of view....of course outside the Oxbow year I tend to not have much success at Pimlico...I'm going to tread lightly but take a few swings.

I definitely think Clever Again is the right horse to take a shot against Journalism with. Not too sure on the price but I really liked that last effort...the fresh horse angle is pretty tried and true...not a big River Thames or Sandman fan so my thought it to try to keep them out under in the verticals, use Journalism defensively and try to get Pay Billy/Gosger into the number (will probably also use Goal Oriented somewhat defensively as I think he's the other main challenger if maybe Baffert was targeting this all along and probably has a ceiling as high/higher than any of these)...

Good luck everyone.

Miss Preakness....
Mila Rose ...love the name, hoping to see her mow them down in the lane coming home but I dont believe the 10/1 ML will stand with the jockey upgrade

Race 4, I really like your top two picks Steve but I’m including the 1 horse in my wagers. It’s 17/1 and had a really bad trip last time out in his first off the layoff. Would not be shocked to see it end up in the money.

Unhappy

Guys, don’t be like me.

I just texted my cousin and told him I kind of liked the 1 in race 5 then didn’t bet it. It won going away and paid $137.

Baffert's horse had the odds lumped up, it was a good race to place some small win bets on the long odds just to have some action in a race with a way overbet chalk
