Why are you so sure the pace will be fast? I see a lot less pace than in the Derby w/no Stormello and Teufelsberg. Lukas will probably get the lead and Hard Spun should sit the second trip. Almost every time there's a very fast pace in the Derby, the Preakness pace is either soft or downright slow.

Im not saying it's gonna be a blistering pace, but there are enough horses that usually don't run this long that are going to be contesting the pace. I think Mint Slewlip, Xchanger, Hard Spun, FFC all would like to be out front. At least that is what Im hoping
