The 150th Preakness Stakes will feature a nine-horse field headlined by Journalism, the 8-5 morning-line favorite and the Kentucky Derby runner-up.
Preakness Stakes is set for Saturday at 7:01 p.m. ET from Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore. The 2025 Preakness Stakes purse is $2 million, matching last year's total as the highest in race history. There will be no Triple Crown winner this year after Sovereignty's connections decided not to enter him following his win at the Kentucky Derby.
Saturday's Preakness Stakes, second jewel of the Triple Crown, drew only three of the 19 Kentucky Derby starters, but the race nonetheless has plenty of interesting facets.
