The second leg of the Triple Crown, the Preakness Stakes, takes place on Saturday, May 20. After Mage won the Kentucky Derby two weeks ago, a win would give him a shot at history as the latest horse to achieve the incredible feat of winning all three premiere summer races at the Belmont.
This is the 148th iteration of the Preakness Stakes, but also the 150th anniversary of the regular horse race, after it was first run in 1873.
