Preakness Contenders

Entries and post positions are here!

The Kentucky Derby is in the record books and the only horse with a chance to be the next Triple Crown winner is now I'll Have Another. Can he do it or will someone else win the Preakness? Here is the latest list of horses planning to start in the Preakness. Right now, it looks like several of the Derby starters are planning to try the Preakness, but there are a couple of new faces and some are back who dropped out of the Derby to wait for the Preakness. A maximum of 14 horses are allowed to start in the Preakness, and we will probably get there this year.

Be sure to click the link on each horse's name to view full info, stats, and a photo where available.
