The second leg of the American Triple Crown, the Preakness Stakes, will take place tomorrow at Pimlico Racecourse in Baltimore with RACHEL ALEXANDRA the eight to five early favourite.
The spectacular filly will be ridden by Calvin Borel, who won the first leg of the Triple Crown --- the Kentucky Derby -- aboard MINE THAT BIRD.
Borel who opted off the Derby winners said RACHEL ALEXANDRA will win the Preakness, which is over nine furlongs.
MINE THAT BIRD is the co-third choice at six to one with FRIESAN FIRE, the Derby wagering favourite, which staggered home next-to-last two weeks ago.
