See what Horse Racing Experts have to say about Preakness Pick Giant Moon:
“If you throw out his poor effort in the slop in the Gotham, he's another that always gives a good account of himself,” stated Preakness Pick Expert Anthony Stabile of VegasInsider.com. “Only things I don't like are the outside draw (if they plan on going to lead) and the fact that he was on the best part of the course last out yet couldn't get there. Maybe he's not that good but he doesn't need to be for a share against these. Use him on bottom of exotics and in a key.”
“Has a stakes win back in January and ran fourth in Wood, but also is coming off six weeks rest. His highest Beyer is 93,” stated Horse Racing Expert Greg Melikov of HorsingAround.info.
