In the meantime, organizers of the Preakness Stakes are gathering their own information as the second league of the Triple Crown is right around the corner, scheduled for next Saturday.
Though Seabiscuit is one of the most famous American horses, he never ran in the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness Stakes or the Belmont Stakes, the three events that make up the Triple Crown of horseracing.
The Preakness Stakes is an American flat thoroughbred horse race held on the third Saturday in May each year at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland. It is a Grade I race run over a distance of 9.5 furlongs (1⁄16 miles (1,900m)) on dirt. Colts and geldings carry 126 pounds (57kg); fillies 121lb (55kg). It is the second leg of the Triple Crown, held two weeks after the Kentucky Derby and three weeks before the Belmont Stakes.
