This year’s Preakness Stakes will feature the 2024 Kentucky Derby winner after all.
While it wasn’t a sure bet after Mystik Dan won the Run of the Roses last weekend, the horse will indeed participate at next Saturday’s Preakness Stakes in Baltimore.
Trainer Kenny McPeek said it’s “all systems go” for Mystik Dan to race next weekend and that “the horse is doing fantastic,” per ESPN.
That’ll give Mystik Dan a chance at achieving the Triple Crown with the Belmont Stakes in June another realistic goal for the horse.
If you’re headed out to Pimlico Race Course next weekend, you’ll now get the chance to see a Kentucky Derby-winning horse run for a further chance at history.
