It's more than a suggestion JR. On the one hand, maybe that's why there have been only 3 wire to wire winners. On the other hand, Pim is notorious for juicing up the track on Preakness Day.
I saw 3 of SS's big wins & don't see the comparison with WE. However, even though the jury's still out, WE does remind me a little of Tiznow prior to his 1st Classic.
To throw in another factor re the Preakness, there are some very astute observers who claim that the key to learning something about how a horse may do is to carefully observe how the horse gallops out after the Derby. These individuals are saying that WE's gallop out was one of the best, if not the best, they have observed for many yrs.
