The bay colt pulled off a remarkable 18-1 upset a week ago at the 1-1/4 mile Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs but McPeek had cast doubt over whether he would attempt the Preakness. "Mystik Dan is well and acts like he'll be ready to run in the Preakness," McPeek said in a statement."We plan to run May 18th. The colt's had a good week."

The announcement keeps alive fans' hopes for a Triple Crown attempt at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland.We know it's a hassle to switch browsers but we want your experience with CNA to be fast, secure and the best it can possibly be.
