I read Cali Chrome may skip the Preakness - he's going cure world hunger that weekend instead. Once this news is out, I'd expect a full field.

I can just imagine a match race between Chrome and Strong Mandate. Chrome could give him a 10 length head start and still win under wraps.

Now Mike, I understand it's just a figure of speech, but world hunger doesn't need "curing": it needs advanced capitalist countries to stop burning crops, paying farmers not to produce food, and practicing other forms of supply suppression.

Social Inclusion scratched out of a Gulfstream stake yesterday. Wonder if he's hurt.
If Bayern, Social Inclusion, Ring Weekend and Pablo Del Monte all show up, California Chrome is going to have to prove his versatililty.

Counting yesterday as a Big Win - and I do - the horse now has five Ainslie Big Wins in a row. That's all the versatility I need to see.
Doesn't mean he can't lose; they all can lose. But no horse in the Preakness will be more versatile than California Chrome.

You left Danza off the list of Preakness possibles. Peltcher said he was 50/50 to run ...

Commanding Curve doesn't belong in the Preakness field, they should skip it for the Belmont where he's got a huge chance.
