2012 Preakness draw and preview

Post Time: Saturday, May 19, 6:18 p.m., NBC

	Andrew Beyer's Analysis	Odds
1. Tiger Walk Trainer: Ignacio Correas IV Jockey: Kent Desormeaux	Gets the riding services of a Maryland legend, but colt's best effort was unexceptional fourth-place finish in Wood Memorial. Under Armour founder takes fast track with Tiger Walk	30-1 BSF: 90
2. Teeth of the Dog Trainer: Michael Matz Jockey: Joe Bravo	Trainer chose not to enter his top colt, Union Rags. Second-stringer finished third in Wood Memorial, but rivals who beat him were subsequently trounced in Louisville. Fresh horses in the Preakness	15-1 BSF: 93
3. Pretension Trainer: Christopher Grove Jockey: Javier Santiago	Won a prep race for the Preakness over the Pimlico track, but Maryland-based colt is badly overmatched here.	30-1 BSF: 83
4. Zetterholm Trainer: Rick Dutrow Jockey: Junior Alvarado	After Derby-winning trainer Doug O'Neill made headlines for his history of racing violations, the last thing the sport needs is Dutrow winning the Preakness.	20-1 BSF: 85
5. Went the Day Well Trainer: H. Graham Motion Jockey: John Velazquez	His fast finish to be fourth in the Derby was something of an illusion: leaders had slowed down badly after an enervating early pace.	6-1 BSF: 97
6. Creative Cause Trainer: Mike Harrington Jockey: Joel Rosario	Didn't impress clockers at Churchill, and got a needlessly wide trip in the Derby. Previous form suggests he can run much better in Preakness.	6-1 BSF: 102
7. Bodemeister Trainer: Bob Baffert Jockey: Mike Smith	Outran fast rivals, set a grueling pace and finished second in the Derby. With little speed in Saturday's field, his Preakness pace may be more like a walk in the park. Bob Baffert's Preakness mastery Beyer's pick: Bodemeister in a runaway	8-5 BSF: 108
8. Daddy Nose Best Trainer: Steve Asmussen Jockey: Garrett Gomez	His pre-Derby form was promising, but he had as smooth a trip as any runner at Churchill Downs and faded to finish 10th.	12-1 BSF: 100
9. I'll Have Another Trainer: Doug O'Neill Jockey: Mario Gutierrez	Little-known jockey secured a perfect trip to win the Derby while many of his rivals were encountering adversity. Can he do it again and keep Triple Crown hopes alive? J. Paul Reddam's philosophy of horse racing	5-2 BSF: 101
10. Optimizer Trainer: D. Wayne Lukas Jockey: Corey Nakatani	Hall-of-Famer Wayne Lukas should be embarrassed to enter this colt, who finished 11th in Kentucky Derby and ninth in Arkansas Derby.	30-1 BSF: 91
11. Cozzetti Trainer: Dale Romans Jockey: Jose Lezcano	Trainer won the '11 Preakness, but this colt is no Shackleford. "He needs to step up," Dale Romans acknowledges.	30-1 BSF: 92
