Saturday afternoon's 143rd running of the Preakness Stakes at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore should be the next step in Justify's bid to become just the third three-year old thoroughbred in the past 40 years to win an elusive Triple Crown title. He was opened as a heavy 1/2 favorite on the morning line in a small field of eight contenders with his biggest competition coming from Good Magic at 3/1 odds.
These two Kentucky-bred colts finished 1-2 at Churchill Downs two weeks ago in the Kentucky Derby. This Saturday's rematch in the second jewel of the Triple Crown racing series adds even more drama to this $1.5 million Grade 1 major stakes event. The rest of the field appears to be racing for the Show position, but Quip at 12/1 and Diamond King at 30/1 odds to win may have something to say about that. As part of my weekly horse racing coverage for ScoresandStats.com, I came up with my trifecta pick for the 2018 Preakness Stakes. Please click though the link below to see which three colts I have finishing in the money at Pimlico late Saturday afternoon.
