My Preakness prediction was a bit off as these results will surely attest. Diabolical was last! Bernardini looked incredible.
Of course, the story that has created the biggest noise is Barbaro's status. After breaking his ankle in two places, his future as a race horse is not viable & even his stallion retirement is in doubt. It made me sick to see the video replays of him running awkwardly as his hoof appeared to be almost detached & rubbery as Edgar Prado attempted to pull him back.
I told friends of mine that I couldn't see Barbaro losing unless something weird happened, and Barbaro's premature start & subsequent injury certainly qualify. I hope he makes it.
