2022 Preakness Stakes Entry List
Simplification 6-1
The fourth-place finisher in the Kentucky Derby impresses because Simplification had to go wide while Rich Strike ran up the rail. But Simplification may not be fast enough to beat these.
Creative Minister 10-1
Trainer Kenny McPeek and Creative Minister’s owners think so much of him that they supplemented the 10-1 choice for $150,000. If he improves at all, he’ll finish no worse than third.
Fenwick 50-1
Rich Strike had some positives. Fenwick has zero. A victory would be a bigger upset than Rich Strike taking the Derby.
Secret Oath 9-2
The D. Wayne Lukas runner looked like she was breezing in the Kentucky Oaks. Her turn of foot is breathtaking. The knocks? The last time she ran against the boys, she appeared timid. Also, The Coach is wheeling back two weeks after her best lifetime race. That’s rarely a positive.
Early Voting 7-2
He could be lone speed because Armagnac, although a frontrunner, isn’t as fast. If Early Voting does get the lead, watch out. Gate-to-wire is a real possibility.
Happy Jack 30-1
The main positive is trainer Doug O’Neil. That doesn’t mean this horse wins. Fourth place pays $60,000, which isn’t bad. So O’Neil might tell the jockey to go for fourth place and if Happy finishes any better than that, great!
Armagnac 12-1
This reeks of desperation. A front-running score going 1 1/16 miles loose on the lead at Santa Anita in an $80,000 optional claimer isn’t the same as going toe-to-toe with a quality speedster like Early Voting. He’d be a surprise.
Epicenter 6-5
The chalk can win. The chalk should win. But Epicenter ran the race of his life in the Kentucky Derby, comes back two weeks later, and should be too tired to catch a quality horse like Early Voting, or hold off a potential monster like Creative Minister.
Skippylongstocking 20-1
Beware the Saffie Joseph Jr. under the radar runner. Skippylongstocking went off over +1700 in the Wood Memorial. Although the horse could finish no better than third, Skippy ran three lengths behind Early Voting for the entire race. The works leading up to this are great, Saffie only runs if he can win, and Skippy should have matured from the Wood to Saturday. This long shot is legit.

Are Improbable and War of Will locks to win the 2019 Preakness Stakes?
Sounds too easy, right? Because of their odds? Neither deserves to be less than +300 favorites to win the Second Jewel of the Triple Crown, though. War of Will had some trouble in the Kentucky Derby, but he wasn’t going to run by Maximum Security no matter what happened. He also gave up after bumping near the top of the stretch.
Improbable might need a vacation. He had a tough race in the Rebel Stakes losing to Long Range Toddy. He couldn’t catch Omaha Beach in the Arkansas Derby. Then, even though he was in a great position to win the Kentucky Derby, he failed to respond. He needs rest, not another grueling race two weeks after the Derby.
Which less than +1000 shots can win the 2019 Preakness Stakes
A case can be made for Bourbon War and Anothertwistafate. Bourbon War, especially, could surprise on Saturday. He finished fourth in the Florida Derby after chasing the best three-year-old in the nation, Maximum Security. He hasn’t run since then. If he’s improved at all, he could be very tough to beat because he’s fresh and he’s bred to be a champion.
Anothertwistafate couldn’t hang on for the win in the Lexington Stakes. That race might be a throw out. He heads into the Preakness fresh just like Bourbon War does. The goal was the Kentucky Derby, but missing that race could be a blessing. Trainer Blaine Wright put a great work into this guy on May 11. He ran 6 furlongs in 1:14.1. Wright will have him on his toes.
Even though both Anothertwistafate and Bourbon War could surprise, the horse offering less than +1000 odds to keep an eye on this week is Alwaysmining. The Laurel Park runner has won 7 in a row.
Let’s be clear. Alwaysmining is stepping up in class on Saturday. He’s not a cheap horse, though. Runnymede Racing purchased him for $130,000 at the Keeneland September Sale in 2017. His sire, Stay Thirsty, won the Grade 2 Jim Dandy, the Grade 1 Travers, and the Grade 1 Cigar Mile. Alwaysmining could be the real deal.
What +1000 odds horse or higher has the best shot of winning the 2019 Preakness Stakes?
Right now, that horse is the Lexington Stakes winner Owendale. The Brad Cox trained runner has an awesome turn of foot. He improved big time in the Lexington. If he improves again in the Preakness Stakes, he could run by all of them in the stretch.
