DeRosa Kicks Off Preakness Week With Thursday Pimlico Selections

The TwinSpires.com content team is live from Pimlico Race Course all week, and while more eyes will be on the Black-Eyed Susan Stakes/Pimlico Special day card on Friday, and the most eyes will be on the Preakness Stakes card Saturday, there are some solid opportunities on the Thursday card that kicks off Maryland's biggest week of racing.

Here is my ABC grid for the nine-race Thursday card. There are rolling Pick 3s, Pick 4s starting with races 2 and 6, and a Pick 5 on races 5-9.

From a morning line perspective, I am most interested in #3 in race 1, #6 in race 2, #7 in race 4, #5 in race 5, #4 in race 8, and #6 in race 9. I do like the rolling multies, but these six horses look to offer win potential as well.
