Most of the talk about the 2012 Preakness will be focused on Kentucky Derby winner I’ll Have Another. So far, the horse has looked great in practice runs early in the week while preparing for the race. I’ll Have Another’s trainer Doug O’Neill has loved what he’s seen from the horse, according to Pimlico.com.

“I’m looking for energy and for him to maintain his stride. He has such a long stride. He continues to keep that,” O’Neill said. “He’s got great energy and a great appetite. Those are the basic things I’m looking to maintain.”
I’ll Have Another has won three consecutive starts this year, and the colt is going for his fourth in a row.
