Justify Wins Preakness Stakes

Preakness

Justify is the winner of the 143rd  running of the Preakness Stakes.  The Kentucky Derby winner won the  second leg of the Triple Crown on a wet, muddy, foggy day at Pimlico  Race Course.  Bravazo finished second in the eight-horse field, followed  by Tenfold in third.  Justify can try and complete the Triple Crown  with a win in the Belmont Stakes on June 9th.  American Pharoah was the  last Triple Crown winner in 2015, ending a 37-year drought that dated  back to 1978.  With a win at the Belmont, Justify would become just the  12th Triple Crown winner in history.
