The field is getting easier for AP again and again. What next, a match race: American Pharoah and Tale of Verve. And the easier it gets the more he saves for Big Sandy.

How so? Firing Line and Dortmund should be strong contenders too.

Ya think so? "Should" is right. But can they win? Depends on who came out of the Derby the best. Any gleaming reports on the big 3. I can't keep up since I have a real job in my real life. Speed favoring, AP controls the pace or right on it, he wins again.

Probably AP wins if the three of them lead from the beginning. Hopefully one of the other entrants outside these three will set the pace.

Materiality is not running in Preakness. Will target Belmont. Looks like Belmont going to have a pretty large field of quality horses.

If I knew a firing line/ap/dortmund $2 tri box would pay $70 I'd bet my wife's hatchet wound on it!

No works between races for the top three finishers. Some open gallops Monday and Tuesday. From all accounts they all came out of the Derby in great shape. Don't have much info on the other four prospective starters. Drf is usually up to date on all of it.

crazy the amount of coverage the derby gets and how little the preakness gets...prior to the derby you'd think the horses are in the miss America pageant...preakness back to regular old horses. Was just wondering how the energy of Dortmund, firing line and so was. All seemed to work pretty hard and wanted to k ow if they have bounced back or are still showing the effects

the mjc needs to do more for their premiere race of the year. and they ought to offer a derby/Preakness bonus to get more of the derby starters in the gate at pimlico.
instead of just sitting on their butts waiting for the crowd to show up, they could really make a big show..
