Not being able to run in the Preakness (or anything else for 2 weeks) really screws them up. I can't see them going straight into the Belmont from here or squeezing in some other race after the Preakness and then going into the Belmont on a quicker turnaround. They should probably just map out a new plan. Maybe they should consider the Met Mile. He'd get in light under the handicap conditions and 3yos have won the race. It would launch a new campaign with the Travers being the main summer target.
