2010 Preakness Stakes Winner
| The winner of the 2010 Preakness Stakes at Pimlico in Maryland is Lookin at Lucky, with First Dude coming in second and Jackson Bend following right behind at third place.
2010 Kentucy Derby winner Super Saver, under rider Calvin Borel, was the favorite to win and was right behind First Dude in second for the first three quarters of a mile, but then tired and fell back to eighth place. It was only the second time in eight career races that Super Saver did not “finish in the money.” Borel said, “He just came up empty.”

Preakness Stakes Winner |
Rachel Alexandra led by a head at the quarter and half-mile poles. She stretched it to a half-length at the three-quarters pole. She was ahead by four lengths going down the stretch. In the end, the 9-5 favorite won by a length in her first race against the boys.
Jockey Calvin Borel all but guaranteed victory in the Preakness Stakes and, boy, did she deliver, becoming the first filly in 85 years to win the second leg of the Triple Crown.

2008 Preakness Stakes Winner
| Big
Brown charged to the lead turning for home and then
cruised down the stretch to win the Preakness on
Saturday, still perfect and squarely pointed toward
thoroughbred racing's first Triple Crown in 30
years. Big
Brown might be the best horse this year in a
middling field of 3-year-olds. Or the colt could be
remembered as one of the greatest of all time.
