Joe Santos is the jockey for Hal's Image...four time U.S. earnings champ rode Funny cide to victories in 2003 Derby and Preakness. Had dental surgey this month after he accidentally struck himself in face with a whip

Afleet Alex...cool name that reminds me of my hockey-playing nephew! I know absolutely nothing about the race!

Only voted for Malibu Moonshine because that's my favorite rum.

Is the Preakness today?

GIACOMO is getting no respect. What's up with that.

Galloping Grocer? Who names these horses?? I went with Sun King, just cuz it's the only summer vacation sounding name. And I need me some vacation right about now.

"Galloping Grocer"....... just doesn't sound like a proper name for a race horse.... doomed from the gate I'd say

I voted for Going Wild as I could relate better to that than I could to some of the other names... though in keeping with 30 to 1 odds, maybe it oughta be Going Mild. If I win, 30 to 1 odds sound pretty good though. Probably my own chances of ever going wild as well.

I have to go with Malibu Moonshine since it is a local Maryland horse who has raced on this track and won on this track.
