Preakness live updates: Epicenter opens as the favorite without ... (The Washington Post)

The second leg of the 2022 Triple Crown has arrived with Saturday's running of the 147th Preakness Stakes at Baltimore's Pimlico Race Course.

Here is how to break down a field. But critics see something different: a move by wealthy and politically connected horsemen to strengthen their hold on the industry. A beginner’s guide to betting on horse racing: Horse racing can be intimidating to newcomers. I’ve got to remember it’s about him. Dave Sheinin:Despite this being the first full-capacity Preakness since 2019, Saturday’s crowd, at least as of midafternoon, appears to be smaller than the most recent pre-pandemic editions.That could be partly due to the intense heat, which had already reached 92 degrees by 3 p.m. Eastern, and was expected to top out at 94 later in the afternoon. Reed may never have another 3-year-old like Rich Strike, but the trainer won’t use that as permission to milk this experience. The issue is also bigger than debate about the prudence of cramming the sport’s three most important events into a five-week schedule at a time when thoroughbreds don’t respond well to quick turnarounds. Still, it’s okay to not want to commit wagering dollars on a near even-money favorite. A trifecta ticket — picking the first three finishers in the correct order — can be made for as low as 50 cents, while a Preakness superfecta ticket — picking the first four finishers in order — can be put together for just 10 cents. Kentucky Derby runner-up Epicenter is the obvious favorite at the second leg of the triple crown, yet his expected short price by post time makes it difficult to include him at the top of any exotic wager such as the trifecta or superfecta. But it always came down to Richie. I work him 10 days apart, not seven. He’s 86, a constant presence this week in a folding chair at the end of the stakes barn at Pimlico Race Course, his mirrored aviators usually reflecting a semicircle of media members standing before him.

Early Voting Wins 2022 Preakness Stakes (Sports Illustrated)

The racehorse, ridden by Jose Ortiz, finished just ahead of Epicenter, the Preakness runner up at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore. Creative Minister and Secret ...

“With our tremendous effort and win in the Derby, it’s very, very tempting to alter our course and run in the Preakness at Pimlico, which would be a great honor for all our group,” the statement read. Early Voting did not participate in this year’s Kentucky Derby as Klarman and others thought the horse “needed a little more seasoning” and rest. Klarman’s Cloud Computing won the 2017 Preakness Stakes, which was held a day before his 60th birthday. More than a week ago, in a statement, Dawson said it had always been the team's plan to determine Rich Strike’s Triple Crown schedule based on the outcome of the Kentucky Derby. If the horse was able to run in the Derby, they expected to “give him more recovery time” and rest for the Belmont. Ortiz did a masterful ride.” “Winning twice is an extraordinary experience….

Its the second Preakness Stakes win for owner Seth Klarman, who also picked up a victory in 2017.

The hottest ever Preakness day was 96 degrees back in 1934. Six fillies (females) have won the Preakness with the last being Swiss Skydiver in 2020. 2020 winner Swiss Skydiver (filly) recorded the second-fastest time at 1:53.28 Alexandra (2009) is the only other filly to win the Preakness in the last 97 years. The largest winning margin at the Preakness is 11 ½ lengths by Smarty Jones in 2004. Fenwick is a huge riser, as his odds went from 50-1 this morning to 7-1 now. — Preakness Stakes (@PreaknessStakes)— Preakness Stakes (@PreaknessStakes) #Joeand @VCarrasco28win the James W.

Thus, before the starting gun ever sounded, the bid for the Triple Crown was over. There was a bit of controversy to some as Early Voting cut hard to the inside but, ultimately, he was clear in the lead and weaved a bit naturally as tired horses often do. Early voting was able to come through as the second-highest favorite in the race, holding off a surging Epicenter on the inside down the home stretch of the race.

BALTIMORE — Maybe extra rest isn't such a bad thing for a racehorse after all. In the Preakness Stakes, which was run without the Kentucky Derby winner ...

Early Voting, a son of Gun Runner, won for the third time in four career races to take the $900,000 winner’s share of the $1.65 million purse. And a good horse did run up on us near the wire and it was about the only one that could run with us.” We were fine to go to the lead, but I thought down the back side it was going to take a good horse to beat us. “The horse, I don’t think he was seasoned enough to run in a 20-horse field and they proved that they were right today.” But when Armagnac blazed out to the lead, Ortiz settled Early Voting, who had plenty left in the tank before the finish line with Epicenter threatening inside at the rail. Early Voting held off hard-charging favorite Epicenter to win the Preakness on Saturday, rewarding trainer Chad Brown and owner Seth Klarman for their patience.
