2012 Preakness Video: Matt Gardner On I’ll Have Another’s Win, Triple Crown Chances

I’ll Have Another’s unbelievable comeback victories have provided for some absolutely insane moments of horse racing. With the Triple Crown still alive and each race being completely ridiculous, it’s a fun time to follow horse racing.

I’ll Have Another has had back-to-back late charges in the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes to win both races for jockey Mario Gutierrez and trainer Doug O’Neill, holding off Bodemeister the favorite in both races.

This sets up an awesome scenario for the 2012 Belmont Stakes: I’ll Have Another and Bodemeister have gone down to the wire in both races, and now I’ll Have Another has a chance to bring home the first Triple Crown since 1978 while Bodemeister - who has had both victories seemingly in his grasp going into the home stretch - has the chance to play the spoiler if he runs at The Belmont.
