Since clocking a 47 flat 4 furlong workout at Belmont on Monday, the buzz at Pimlico has been all about Kentucky Derby winner, Orb. Are the other 8 horses running for second money?
Last Gunfighter used a powerful stretch run to blow right on by the alone on the lead, Eighttofasttocatch, to win the Grade 3 Pimlico Special by an ever-widening 4 ¼ lengths.
In the 89th running of Black-Eyed Susan at Pimlico, it was Bob Baffert, and blinkers, and no more Beholder, as Fiftyshadesofhay got up to win by a neck.
Certain distaff lines have a proclivity for producing classic winners. Let's take a look at this year's Preakness contenders and note which ones evolve from notable distaff lines.
In the past 41 editions, only one horse has won the Preakness from the #1 post position ... Orb will break from that position on Saturday.
