I think the whole premise that John Sherrifs never ships a horse unless he truly believes he can win is a way overblown. Who knows what his motivation is, but he doesn't look like he belongs to me.
Same As Midnite Interlude. Just because Baffert has had past Preakness success means nothing. Where else is Midnite Interlude going to run? There's not a lot of options out west for a 3-year old colt this time of year.
He clearly loves the Preakness and wants a runner in the race. I didn't like him in the Derby, and certainly won't be backing him in the Preakness.
