Preakness 2018: Full schedule for the week at Pimlico

All eyes will be on Justify in Baltimore, with the three-year-old trying for the second leg of the Triple Crown at the Preakness Stakes on Saturday evening. But that’s just the culmination of the week.

There are 28 races over two days at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, highlighted by the Black-Eyed Susan Stakes for three-year-old fillies on Friday then the 143rd running of the Preakness Stakes on Saturday.

Justify got things started at the Kentucky Derby, winning by 2½ lengths at Churchill Downs. He is 4-0 and if he remains undefeated on Saturday will be the first horse to win the Kentucky Derby and Preakness since American Pharoah won the Triple Crown in 2015.

It is unclear what competition Justify will face in Baltimore. Good Magic and Audible, who finished second and third at the Kentucky Derby, might not run at the Preakness.

“I want to give myself a little room to really observe the horse,” said Chad Brown, Good Magic’s trainer, per the Associated Press. “The horse will tell us.”

NBC and NBCSN will televise coverage from Pimlico this week, with online streaming available through NBC Sports Live Extra.
