Traditionally the second leg of the Triple Crown and held in mid-May, the 145th Preakness Stakes instead wraps up the Triple crown in front of an empty Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore.

The race will be without much added drama this year as Belmont winner and Derby runner-up Tiz the Law will skip a rematch with Derby victor Authentic. Tiz the Law will focus his training for the Nov. 7 Breeders’ Cup instead.

Authentic, trained by Bob Baffert, will run in the 1 3/16-mile Preakness, and headlines an 11-horse field.

Thousand Words was one of the favorites to win the Kentucky Derby but was a last-minute scratch after falling in the paddock moments before post.
