Preakness

[JudgeWapner]

Looks like plenty of front end speed in the race. Nyquist will be tested.

Agree, but he doesn't need the lead. Just needs to be right there with them

Nyquist is a little over 2 ½ miles from entering rarefied air as he heads to Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore on Saturday for the 2016 Preakness Stakes.
The three-year-old lived up to the hype at the Kentucky Derby, holding off Exaggerator for the victory. Granted, he remains a long way from becoming the 13th horse to capture the Triple Crown. Many pitfalls remain for Nyquistas he looks to win three major races in a little over a month.
When it comes to Saturday's Preakness Stakes, though, anything less than another Nyquist win will be a major surprise:

[DrunkenHorseplayer]

By Grade I standards, it's cheap speed. Nyquist will have no problem; the only ones with a chance to beat him are Exaggerator and Stradivari, although I'll want much more than the 3/1 ML on Exaggerator.

 

[ML Dog]

What website is the above chart ^^^ from, that includes BSF (Beyer Speed Figures)?

Beyer Speed Figures proved to be pretty "telling" at The Derby in regards to Matchups between Horses.

Can one expect the same here, BSF to be as good a stat to 'cap Matchups with?

Will you be doing WriteUps Judge? Like you did for The Derby?

Desormeaux Brothers will be fired up in this spot.

 

[Greenbacks]

Nyquist wins 2016 Kentucky Derby.

 

[JudgeWapner]

DH, agreed, but at Pimlico I would imagine he will want the rail and he won't want to get boxed by the cheap speed. Might go a little faster than he wants early. Not sure what to make of Stradivari. Very green but very talented.

Hopefully will have time tomorrow to get something up.
