Mud might help Nyquist as much or more than it helps anything else.

I saw the thread title, and I went and placed a bet that Exaggerator would be mentioned within the first two posts. I won, and managed to secure odds of 1/1,000,000.

Really though Exaggerators persieved muddy status is because of the Santa Anita Derby and really that standout performance was probably more of a product of the pace of the race...

And it didn't seem to affect the Pharoah one bit.

Did anyone have BEE BEE BEE (1972) being mentioned in the first 10 posts? That would probably be worth 100/1 or so.

I hope it pours down in the Preakness, Nyquist will still win easier than he won in the KD. No one can challenge him in the Preakness.

The two best global forecast models do suggest an all day rain event is possible that day. Too early to say "likely". If it is a slopfest then I will happily box Exaggerator and Nyquist and collect my 4-1exacta payoff. Maybe 8-1 if Exaggerator gets on top.

got soaked...moved to the passageway to get to the grandstand but the inside was so crowded you couldn't get in...at that point I was drenched and didn't really care. near post time went back out and watched the race with probably 2 inches of water in my loafers. AP became lock city once the track turned to soup.
thing that sucks is the programs, ticket stubs and collectors items because of the triple crown were albeit ruined. ive got my stubs, programs and crap from just about the past decade but nothing made it out last year...
