Interesting the trainer is saying Preakness not a definite for MTB....mmmm....call me a cynic but that performance was almost too good to believe on his merits.

mine that bird-they're saying wait and see. that md was never in their plans, and they may just wait for the belmont (yeah, right).

baffert said he'll wait a week to see about POTN.

mustket man-either preakness or belmont, not both. i'd go preakness, skip belmont, but it's not up to me.

pletcher looking to run join in the dance, but not dunkirk who has an injury to his hoof. his take the points also supposed to run in md.

no go for quality road of course.

i'd think general quarters would go on-i think he hated the track yesterday, i didn't like how he looked on it in the post parade.

big drama and mr fantasy are also supposed to run in the preakness. i really think it'll be a full field.

As long as the media will be present at Pimlico, POTN and whichever horse(s) Pletcher can find will run in the Preakness. DWL might even make an appearance.

he's pointing take the points there, they opted to skip the derby and train towards pimlico with him. join in the dance will be the most likely early pace again.
as for dwl-i think flying private would be better off on synthetics, based on his performances on both types of tracks. that and perhaps a step down in class.

I just want to know if Scorewithcater and Kelly Leak (whoever they are) will show up.
Apparently they must be monsters. :rolleyes:

summer bird, chocolate candy both forgoing the preakness, pointing towards the belmont.
