Background - Preakness Stakes
Each third Saturday of May, more than a hundred thousand people with Preakness Stakes tickets flood Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland to watch the second leg of the Triple Crown. The race sets a field of up to 14 three-year-old colts, geldings, and fillies against each other on a track 1-3/16 miles long. The winner is draped with a blanket of Black-eyed Susans (thus the "The Run for the Black-Eyed Susans") and, if the winner is the same as the Kentucky Derby, the Belmont Stakes is primed for a national frenzy.
Though many may associate the Kentucky Derby with the beginning of horse racing in America, the first running Preakness actual predates the derby by two years, first running in 1873. The race was named after the winning horse of the Dinner Party Stakes for the Pimlico Race Course's inaugural race on October 25, 1870. Since then, Preakness tickets have been a staple among horse racing enthusiasts.
Over time the course has changed business hands and racing lengths, but the most important change came in 1930 when the Triple Crown became an annual fixation for sports fans throughout the country. Preakness Stakes tickets have a pitched excitement, since it is second and thus the first chance to see of that year's Kentucky Derby-winning horse has a chance to make history.

2009 Preakness Preview
|
The race is much more than just the second leg of a horse racing trilogy. It is also an event onto itself with years of traditions setting it apart from all other races. Before each race "Maryland, My Maryland" is sung by the U.S. Naval Academy Glee Club, the winner is adorned with a blanket of Black-eyed Susans, and the winner's colors are painted on the cupola on top of the Old Clubhouse. Also the winning owner receives the Woodlawn Vase. Preakness tickets are obviously much more than simply another horse race and are on par with Kentucky Derby tickets.
Last year, in 2008, Big Brown collected his second leg of the Triple Crown with a time of 1:54:80. This year the field of horses is not yet set, but will assuredly be worth watching as the anticipation for the race and the Triple Crown reach a fevered pitch in May.
