I realize R2R beat a far more legit horse ... but it's tempting to pick RA's Preakness because R2R's Belmont was run at a snail's pace at an uncommonly long distance.

I voted dead heat.

Another less tricky poll would be RA's Oaks win vs RA's Preakness win.

i don't know...some would pick the oaks because of the margin, but i would definitely vote for saturdays effort.
