The 150th running of the Preakness Stakes features a nine-horse field led by Journalism (8-5). After closing as the favorite but finishing second to Sovereignty in the Kentucky Derby, Journalism races Saturday seeking redemption. Sovereignty will not run Saturday in the Preakness electing to recover from the Derby and next race in three weeks in the Belmont Stakes.
Journalism will break from the No. 2 post Saturday evening on NBC, in the $2 million second leg of the Triple Crown.
Sandman (4-1) and American Promise (15-1) join Journalism as the only horses entered in The Preakness who also ran in the Kentucky Derby. Sandman finished seventh in the Run for the Roses while American Promise contended early but faded late to finish sixteenth.
Clever Again (5-1) is the third favorite. Sired by American Pharoah, the Steven M. Asmussen-trained colt is a betting favorite despite being lightly raced to this point in his career.
Let’s run through the field according to their post position and then welcome in NBC Horse Racing Analysts Al Bernstein (@AlBernstein) and Drew Dinsick (@whale_capper) with their plays for the race which is slated to go off at 7:01P Eastern.
Rating: 5
