First of all, they gave CP 8 weeks into his previous race, and he ran a new top. And he didn't run that far off his top last time.
There are is some chance they got caught up in the hype with this one. Nothing wrong with the layoff if you want the big effort(s) to come later-- but they may have thought he was good enough to win without being tight, which is another story.
Preakness might be unusually interesting this year. This is a very deep crop.
