My Preakness picks

My Kentucky Derby picks didn't go so well, but I'm still rooting for Curlin in the Preakness. It would be kind of nice to have a new triple crown winner, but I'm not crazy about Street Sense. I'll blog back with the results.

Edit: Congratulations, Curlin! I was right this time; too bad I didn't bet any money. It was a great race - at the beginning I thought Curlin was out for sure, as he was so far back. The finish reminded me of the 1998 Belmont Stakes, where Victory Gallop defeated Real Quiet by a nose and prevented him from winning the Triple Crown. Unlike in 1998, when I was rooting for Real Quiet, I was very happy with the results this time.
