Giant Moon may be an interesting longshot in the Preakness. Looking at his chart, bettors will be put off by the fact that he finished out of the money in his last two races, both graded. But the colt was four-for-four prior to that, including the Count Fleet in January (below) where he shows a lot of heart heading to the wire.

The big blemish on the New York-bred's resume is finishing ninth in the Gotham Stakes but the race was on a muddy track and jockey Ramon Dominguez reeled him in to avoid injury. In the Wood Memorial on April 4, Giant Moon finished fourth but was just two lengths behind the winner and fourth-place Kentucky Derby runner Tale of Ekati. He got a less-than-desirable post draw for the Preakness, the No. 11 hole.

Here's Giant Moon (No. 10) in the Count Fleet:
