Saturday's card is crazy full of opportunities with only a few first-timers worth considering, one of which happens to be on the Preakness card

My Preakness opinion is that this has not been a great crop of 3-year-olds and we are waiting for a fresh face to reboot the division. I really like Owendale (No. 5).

TimeformUS handicapper David Aragona highlights some contenders on Friday's card at Belmont.
TimeformUS Preakness Analysis: The Pace Projector is predicting a fast pace, but it’s not the sort of overwhelming pace characterization that you will sometimes see in races of this magnitude.
The late pick four starts on the 11th race, the Grade 2 Black-Eyed Susan. There’s no shortage of speed in the field, and it could set up for one of the closing favorites, Always Shopping (6) or Point of Honor (8).

Like trainer Mark Casse, I was hoping War of Will did not draw the rail again for the Preakness, although obviously not for the same reasons. The prevailing thought was that War of Will and IMPROBABLE are the two best horses in this field, with the former likely to offer a little more betting value and with a very legitimate chance of defeating the likely favorite – if he did not draw down inside again.
