War of Will had had very bad racing luck in the Kentucky Derby, being the victim of Maximum Security's sudden move outside. It was as if the racing gods wanted to even things out for him, because he couldn't have asked for a better trip in the Preakness. Starting on the rail, he did not appear to contest the early pace in a serious way. But as he came around the final turn he found all the room he could possibly have wanted on the rail to get past the lead group. The three races before the Preakness on the dirt had all been won on the rail, so you would have guessed that jockey's would have been looking to inhabit the rail and protect it from others. But War of Will could have driven a truck through the hole he found in front of him, and he took full advantage. He found the lead, and maintained it with little effort. Unlike in the Derby, there was truly no question at all who the best horse was here. There were no good excuses anywhere else. It was an impressive, dominant win.
Behind him, though, it was not a good day for the top horses. Favorite Improbable finished sixth, and was never a real factor. He reared in the gate, and never seemed comfortable once he got on to the track. Bourbon War got a lot of attention at the betting window but didn't have his day at all. Local favorite Alwaysmining, with trainer Kelly Rubley looking to become the first woman to train the winner in the race, had a disastrous day. Anothertwistafate had a lousy day, too.
Everfast, a longshot who I gave very little chance in the race, wound up second. He, too, benefited from the speed of the rail. With two more longer prices horses finishing behind him the superfecta offered a crazy payoff — the type of dreams. It was a frustrating superfecta in one sense, though. We try to get so smart in out handicapping, but if you had bet a ticket of all-all-all-all you couldn't possibly have lost, and you would have better than tripled your money.
It's a deserved win for the pairing of trainer Mark Casse and jockey Tyler Gaffalione. The two are very frequent partners on the track, and both have earned their first Triple Crown race win here. Gaffalione was the youngster rider in the race, and this just serves as an inevitable step up in stature for a very talented rider. Casse, who absolutely dominated Canadian racing before focusing south of the border, was the best trainer not to have a Triple Crown win in my eyes, and I am confident that this will not be his last by any means.
There was a scary moment out of the gate when longshot Bodexpres spooked badly out of the gate, and rider John Velazquez was tossed to the ground barely a stride out of the gate. The riderless horse ran the whole race, but thankfully stayed out of trouble and didn't cause any problems.
