As awesome as he was today (and he really was), he's far from a lock. There'll be an ample number of competitors.

There will be, perhaps, an ample number of entries. Competitors? That I highly doubt.

That overhead shot showing BB drawing off at the top of the lane was very very impressive...

Only one other horse needs to show up. Casino Drive. He will run right by Big Brown at the 1/16th pole.

Does that mean we can expect you to disappear in just over three weeks?

aaaahh...ok! Horse has won two races, a maiden in Japan and the Peter Pan...as weak as this Preakness field was, I can't believe the Peter Pan was better. BB ran a 1:54.4 today, after Kent pulled him back at least 4 times during the race and had his feet clearly pinned to the floorboard down the stretch...Kent ever lets him loose he may fly. Casino Drive, if the connections don't change their minds, could be part of the lowest exacta payoff in TC history...but boxing isn't necessary!

The Bid won it in 1:54.1,Slew in 1:54.2,Affirmed 1:54.2.
Looks like it could have been faster if like you say Kent let him run.

It also showed the equally impressive ride that Kentucky Bear got.....not. And the trouble that cost Icabad Crane second.
