Bettor's Edge

By Jeremy Plonk

If legendary trainer D. Wayne Lukas nabs his lucky No. 7 Preakness trophy, he’ll have to do it with perhaps the longest shot on the toteboard. The Rebel Stakes third-place finisher labored home 11th in the Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland last time out and brings just a 1-for-8 lifetime record to Baltimore. Market King figures prominently in the early pace based on his past sprint form. The 83-year-old Lukas reminds us to never say never in this game. He narrowly missed here with 15-1 shot Bravazo a year ago, and won the 2000 Belmont Stakes with Commendable coming off a 17th-place Kentucky Derby effort.
