Pletcher to have two for the Preakness

Horseracing Betting Lines

05/11/2010 - Baltimore, MD (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Eclipse Award winning trainer Todd Pletcher will have two starters, including Kentucky Derby winner Super Saver, in Saturday's $1 million Preakness Stakes at Pimlico Race Course.

The middle jewel of racing's Triple Crown is expected to have a field of 13 three-year-olds.

"He came out of the work (Monday) very well," Pletcher said about Super Saver. "Everything is on 'go,' so we're planning on getting on the plane in the morning."

In addition to Super Saver, with Calvin Borel in the saddle, Pletcher will send out Derby Trial runner-up Aikenite. Javier Castellano has the Preakness mount on Aikenite.

Pletcher will not start Louisiana Derby champ Mission Impazible in Saturday's 1 3/16-mile race. The colt finished ninth in the Kentucky Derby.

"We were on the fence with him and never had fully committed to going," Pletcher said. "We wanted to see how he trained and felt like at the end of the day that he needed a little more time."

The four-time champion trainer noted that Monmouth Park's Haskell Invitational in August is on Mission Impazible's 2010 schedule.

Pletcher, who won his first Kentucky Derby this year, is also after his first Preakness victory.

"We anticipated a full gate and I guess it's close to that," Pletcher said. "It's an interesting Preakness to me with what looks like eight newcomers who did not participate in the Derby. We're happy to be coming with the Derby winner and feel like he's doing very well."

Expected to join Super Saver and Aikenite in the 135th Preakness are Northern Giant, Caracortado, First Dude, Dublin, Hurricane Ike, Jackson Bend, Lookin At Lucky, Paddy O'Prado, Pleasant Prince, Schoolyard Dreams and Yawanna Twist.
