    Dr. Who&Why Preakness
    I found this in another forum


    from Dr. Who&Why



    PREAKNESS 2010

    #1 AIKENITE (20-1)........Sire ' Yes Its True' was strictly a sprinter but this guy can handle the distance. Ive never taken the Derby Trial horses too serious in the triple crown races as they are typically a notch or 2 below the elite. Dangerous Castellano takes the mount but his very best would be 5th or 6th. Pass...............

    #2 SCHOOLYARD DREAMS (15-1)........This guy is dangerous here as he has shown a nice turn of foot in The TB Derby while beating Saver Saver. The Effort in the Wood Mem is deceiving since Eskendereya won by approx 10 lgths, i fully expect a big effort here and should not go off 15-1. Capable Eibar Coa aboard.........

    #3 PLEASANT PRINCE (20-1) Doubt he will be heard from in this race and looks more like a filler. Hot shot Leparoux takes the mount..........

    #4 NORTHERN GIANT (30-1).........Another filler here as son of Giants Causeway has yet to win anything but a $34k maiden race. Over his head..........

    #5 YAWANNA TWIST (30-1)..........Sire Yanaguska was a sprinter but this guy has yet to run a bad race and the dist is fine with him. May get his name called a couple times but looks a notch below. Dutrow/Prado combo gives him a board shot..........

    #6 JACKSON BEND (12-1)............Gets a chance to make a statement here since he obviously didnt like the slop at Churchill. Another one who can run big if he gets a decent trip. Note he ran 2nd twice to Eskenderya and may be better than most of these. Smith keeps the mount. Dangerous..........

    #7 LOOKIN AT LUCKY (3-1)........Can he get a nice trip and strutt his stuff?? Baffert replaces Gomez with Matt Garcia and he draws a nice post. Big opportunity for the 2yr old champ make amends. He is the real deal so lets see if he can avoid trouble. May end up going off favorite............

    #8 SUPER SAVER (5-2).......Derby winner has Borel extremely confidant and who can argue with him?? Looks to be improving and may uncork his best in this spot. Another stalking rail trip with limited early speed in the race??..............

    #9 CONCORTADO (10-1).......Although he looks tough as can be, i dont trust the West coast horses simply because they typically dont run to form. Jock/trainer combo has nice % but im leaning to others. Note his last workout on may 8 is at SA.......

    #10 PADDY O PRADO (9-2).......Cant find fault with son of world-beater El Prado outside of el prado being a grass specialist. I dont think Paddy knows this since he has been fine on either one. Loomed boldly in the Derby at 12-1 barely missing place in the final strides. Cannot eliminate as he will emerge around the mile. Look out............

    #11 FIRST DUDE (20-1)...........Looks over his head but should make a decent showing early on but doubt he can handle this type when the real running starts. Pass............

    #12 DUBLIN (20-1).........D Wayne gets Gomez so this guy means business. Ill toss the derby for obvious reasons and expect a huge effort here. Son of Afleet Alex went for $525k so his best is coming. Better than 20-1 and is NOT outclassed . Upset shot but dont be too surprised.....
