Creative Cause boarded a plane in Los Angeles at around 5am Pacific Wednesday for the journey back East. The son of Giant's Causeway embarked on his third cross-country venture since last fall, when he went to Churchill Downs for the Breeders' Cup Juvenile. The flight made a stopover in Louisville to pick up the Churchill-based Preakness contingent before heading onto Baltimore for a van ride to Pimlico Race Course with an estimated arrival time of 3 p.m. "He's a good traveler," said 71-year-old trainer Mike Harrington, who will be saddling his first Preakness runner for owner Heinz Steinmann.
He did not go out on Thursday morning.
