It looks like some big name jocks are going to miss out on the Preakness.

It feels like after having beaten up all the kids at the High School, Big Brown is now trudging over to the Elementary School to dust them up as well.

Unless, of course, Harlem Rocker runs.

With this kind of attitude, and HR running, we might just have another moment in the Preakness.

me too. but i never bet a 2-1 in the derby, i'd rather lose, i've caught some good ones over the years . i definetly would not bet something at 1-9 ever , unless it was in an exacta . the preakness may be non bet and just watch deal. i think big browns only problem will be the belmont. the rigors of the triple crown have been known to take their toll and this horse does not race alot .

If Harlem Rocker works well this weekend he is going to the Preakness. Got that from some Stronach people. Shocking considering he owns the track. You have to think the people at NYRA are pushing Pletcher to go North.

Funny that those Stronach people forgot to mention that Harlem Rocker will be running in the Queen's Plate June 22nd, five weeks after the possible Preakness start. (As opposed to the Belmont June 7, two weeks before the Queen's Plate).

may not be a bunch of world beaters in there (save BB), but it's no walkover with a field that's nearly full--at this point.
