'Mover' filly runs in The Preakness


Just for posterity. And, out of respect for the 'monster move,' I am betting Ria Antonia across the board in today's Preakness. The filly shows the move in her last running line.  Although the rest of her pps don't indicate she has even a ghost of a chance, it has happened before.

There are some interesting happenings surrounding the long shot, however.  She has been handed over to premier trainer Thom  Amos from none-other than Bob Baffert.  She gets Calvin Borel, with something to prove after his atrocious ride in the Kentucky Derby. She is the second highest money earner n the race and  she  beat the boys in her maiden win.

Most importantly, I would have to kill myself if she finishes in the money and I don't bet her.  Expect 30-1.
