Why does Point Given's ongoing and career-long hoof problem(s) never get brought up in discussions of his great campaign?

The card, minus the Preakness, is probably drawn tomorrow but possibly today.

Card gets drawn tomorrow. Full PPs become available after the Preakness draw, which takes place at 4:30 PM EDT.

Preakness undercard is usually the worst of the three Triple Crown races, but that doesn't mean there won't be plenty to bet on.

SAY WHAT? I think it's the BEST of the three undercards, or at least on par with Derby and Belmont. That CompUSA Dixie is always an awesome race.

I thought that this year's Derby under card stank, apart from the Turf Classic.

I agree. It was well below par. If Belmont had run that people would have been screaming. Though, to be fair, the Humana Distaff was a terrific race as well.

Pimlico usually does a good job and Friday's card is a lot of fun.
