Add Market King to the lineup now too.

And me, who is unexpectedly going.

Wonder if Dan Kauffman, being from Maryland, may also be going?

War of Will ... assuming no one jumps in front of him, or he doesn't try to run over anyone trying to jump in front of him.

I like that horse. I've got a feeling about that one. I'll go with that one. Of course, now that he's got my backing, he'll finish up the track.

Who knows? Such a strange Triple Crown year.

No Derby winner. No disqualified Derby winner.

Nostalgia for the place where It all started for me in the TB world compels me to route for Anothertwistafate. Go British Colombia Go!!!!!!

War of Will, he was my pick in the derby, will still be my pick in the Preakness, assuming no one jumps in front of him.

Being a Maryland resident that saw his Tesio win in person, I have to throw a few bucks towards Alwaysmining.

I just watched that race. Impressive. Step up in company here, of course, but very impressive.

I think my signature should be, "I always pay attention when Eric Hamme talks about horses running in Maryland."

A little more than 15 hours to post time. I thought I wouldn't be excited for this Preakness after that Derby result.

But I think it's really becoming more and more interesting not to see a horse be 4/5 in the morning line.

This is going to be fun. And, I think I'll fix that signature now.

To be clear, I haven't really paid attention to the Preakness because I've been out of town, and until 6 I'm all about Indy 500 qualifying.

War of Will did it.

I cant believe mine floated up to 6/1. Not a bad hit at all. Glad I stayed out of the exotics though ... I truly don't think I would have hit that 10 and 5 behind him.

Felt bad for Bodexpress. But no one was hurt, so that's always a relief.
