Hard Spun
I would rather have seen Hard Spun skip the Preakness and freshen up for the Belmont, but can't blame connections for running. Live ones in the Preakness might be Chelokee, Slew's Tizzy, and the Lukas entries. Each of the 3 TC races might be radically different scenarios. Will make for a challenging TC effort for Street Sense.

one lukas runner will go in the preakness, the other in the barbaro stakes. cp west will go to one or the other.
i'm thinking they gave hard spun a breather between the lane's end and derby so as to not take too much out of the tank, so that he wouldn't be too tired to run back. they may well have been thinking ahead. nafzger on the other hand admitted that the derby was the only thing on his mind, said it's up to the horse to go on from here.

I think Hard Spun is more suited for this race than the Belmont. The shorter the distance the better. That 1/16 less of a mile added with slight traffic issues for SS, could give Hard Spun the Preakness. Remember too that SS is also lightly raced, so who knows how the 2-week turnaround will do for him too...
