Dr. Sabrin announced his prediction that Big Brown will probably win the 133rd running of the Preakness on Saturday since Cowboy Cal won't be participating.  He also announced that every dollar that is donated between 3:00-4:00 p.m. (EST) on Friday, May 16th, will be wagered on the Preakness.  However, to hedge against an upset (and to get better odds than 1-2), he will take the funds and box an exacta with Big Brown, Icabad Crane and Gayego.  He will make the wager on behalf of the campaign on Saturday when he visits Monmouth Park Racetrack.

Maverick Murray predicted, "Since Behindatthebar has been scratched, Big Brown is an even greater favorite to win.  However, even front-runners like myself don't win until we cross the finish line.  If we can raise $25,000 for this wager we can fund a week's worth of T.V. commercials for my campaign to Legalize Freedom!"  Sabrin continued, "If you want something more risky try boxing the Trifecta with Big Brown, Icabad Crane and Gayego.  If you win, I hope you will consider a very generous donation to my campaign; if you lose, remember I told you it was risky."

At least we know one horse's ass that will lose in the New Jersey primary on June 3.
