The Preakness Stakes will take place on May 19. Will I’ll Have Another take another step towards becoming a Triple Crown champion?

To win the Preakness, one must have speed but also perfect timing. Which one of this year’s Preakness Stakes contenders has the winning combination?

I’ll Have Another, this year’s Kentucky Derby champion, showed he can close fast. But jockey Mario Gutierrez is a Triple Crown rookie, having never saddled a Preakness Stakes starter before.

On the other hand, veteran jockey Kent Desormeaux has won two previous Preakness Stakes. He has picked up the mount on Optimizer for the Preakness, a horse not known for his speed.
