1. You dont have to rush the horse back in 2 weeks for the Preakness, the horse would get about 6 weeks rest.

2. Instead of trying to become the 12th Triple Crown winner in history, the horse would be trying to become the first Kentucky / Epsom Derby winner.

3. I'm sure it would have worldwide coverage and be good news for the sport.

Or would I eventually be pressurised into running it in the Preakness??

wow, very ambitious. how about i like to own a triple crown philly?
