I don't have as clear a picture of the exact type of race that will win the Preakness. I again think that Street Sense will be coming on the outside with his bid.

I am less worried about the trip than I am Hard Spun and Curlin. Street Sense's style means that having to check would cost him the race. Yet he is full of steam and moving late when others are tiring so he shouldn't have to check.

I think he only hangs here if Borel moves him too early or if he gets a terrible trip.

Calvin's specialty when he can't go up the rail.
