Since 2000 only eight horses have won the first two legs of the Triple Crown to give themselves the opportunity to make history. Over the last five years a different horse has won each leg of the Triple Crown, which is the longest stretch since 1924-1929 where six years went by without a horse winning more than one leg.
Mystik Dan has been trained by Kenneth McPeek for all races and ridden by Brian Hernandez Jr. in six of the seven races, including the 2024 Kentucky Derby. They won the Kentucky Derby by a nose, setting this team up as the favorite to win the 2024 Preakness Stakes.
Also in the field today for the 2024 Preakness Stakes are Mugatu, Uncle Heavy, Catching Freedom, Muth, Seize the Grey, Just Steel, Tucson Gold and Imagination all looking to etch their names in the history of horse racing.
