I don't know if he dislikes it or not, he was 5/1-0-0 going into the Derby, I just suggested that now that he's 6/1-0-0, it is possible that he didn't like it. I simply see no reason not to try the shorter Preakness if the horse is sound. The poly to dirt thing is pretty confusing, some horses (Street Sense) appear to like the dirt better, some (Dominican) may like poly...coming out of the Blue Grass where the horse ran well...it's possible he didn't like CD.
