Preakness Diaries: A Whirlwind Day at Pimlico

Description:
The Preakness Stakes is one of the most revered horse races in the United States: It’s the second leg of the Triple Crown, it carries a $1.5-million purse, and it’s a springtime national institution. But beyond that, the Preakness Stakes is just plain fun. The entire week is dedicated to making sure fans, horsemen and media have an amazing experience, and from the moment of my arrival on Wednesday afternoon the spirit of the week has been a shining beacon of a good time.
