The May 16 race at Laurel Park could feature Bob Baffert runners Crude Velocity, Potente and Cherokee Nation, with Golden Tempo and Taj Mahal each listed at 8-1.
Crude Velocity, the Pat Day Mile winner, was rated 3-1 and seen as the main threat if Golden Tempo's connections pursue a Triple Crown bid after the Kentucky Derby.
Taj Mahal, winner of the Tesio Stakes, was highlighted as a possible value bet, while Baffert seeks another Preakness success after past Triple Crown near-misses and wins with American Pharoah and Justify.
