Uncle Heavy Preakness Stakes Prediction and Pick
Uncle Heavy is a long shot for the 149th Preakness Stakes and would be a breakout win for his connections.
A top Speed Score of 95 is below average (101.6) for the field and a lack of 100-level scores is noticeable with the competition at the top of the board.
