Two winners and two scratches on yesterday’s card. Preakness today. Good luck!
Race 1
#6 - ERTE - Drops in class, should stalk the pace.

#5 - FANTASTIC STYLE - Finished 3rd in a G2 in her last start, shows early speed and super works, Bejarano/Baffert are the connections.
Race 3
#9 - RUN LIKE A MILLION - Shows good works for his first try on the hillside.
Race 4
#4 - MARGIE’S MINUTE - Shows good works, turf to dirt angle.
Race 5
#6 - LUTE IT UP - Drops in class, has experience at the tough 7F distance.
Race 6
#2 - SWISSARELLA - Drops in class, Bejarano rides.
Race 7
#3 - UNSTOPPABLEPASSION - First time starter, Peter Miller trains.
Race 8
#2 - ALL FOR CHARITY - First time starter, profitable jockey/trainer combination.

Race 10
#5 - APOSTLE PAUL - Finished 3rd in his last start, drops in class.
Race 11
#10 - GRAMMY TIMES SIX - Drops in class, shows good works, Eddie Truman trains.
Pimlico Race 13 The Preakness Stakes
#8 - FIRING LINE - Should show tactical speed from a favorable post position with Hall of Fame jockey Gary Stevens aboard. Also, Firing Line is the only plausible value play in the race. Prior to the Kentucky Derby, I thought this year’s crop of three year olds was exceptionally good. American Pharoah’s slow winning time and the the slow pace of the race convinced me otherwise. Even if American Pharoah goes on to win the triple crown, which I think is unlikely, it will be against very weak competition.
