We aren’t going to have a Triple Crown winner this year, as Kentucky Derby victor Golden Tempo is not running in the Preakness Stakes, but we have a wide-open race with a lot of interesting contenders. In fact, it should be a good weekend of racing at Laurel Park, including Friday night’s Black-Eyed Susan Stakes.
Our horse racing experts – Mike Somich, Ed Sehon, and Dave Tuley – will steer you in the right direction, but we’ve also been getting daily best bets from our friends at Daily Racing Form (DRF) for several months now and that will continue through the Triple Crown races and beyond. David Aragona and Mike Beer have already supplied their thoughts on the two main events – the Preakness Stakes and the Black-Eyed Susan Stakes – and we’ll have more expert selections throughout the week.
The following links encompass our horse racing coverage for the 2026 Preakness Stakes.
