The 2024 Preakness Stakes will be held at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore on Saturday. Post time is scheduled for 7:01 p.m. ET and 2024 Preakness Stakes post positions were established during Monday’s draw. Kentucky Derby winner Mystik Dan drew the No. 5 post and trainer Kenneth McPeek will try to continue a historic Triple Crown season after winning the Derby-Oaks double at Churchill Downs. McPeek won the 2020 Preakness Stakes with Swiss Skydiver and he’ll hope Mystik Dan can become the first horse since Justify in 2018 to capture the first two legs of the Triple Crown.
Mystik Dan is 5-2 in the 2024 Preakness Stakes odds, but Arkansas Derby winner Muth is the 8-5 favorite and has one of the most impressive 2024 Preakness Stakes past performances. Before making any 2024 Preakness Stakes picks for the 149th Run for the Black-Eyed Susans, you need to see our 2024 Preakness Stakes cheat sheet and past performances featuring analysis from renowned horse racing handicapper Jody Demling.
A fixture in the horse racing world who has been writing about, talking about and betting on races for years, Demling enters the 2024 Kentucky Derby having nailed the winner of the Belmont Stakes four of the last six years, including an exacta in 2022 with Mo Donegal and Nest. He also called Flightline’s win at the Breeders’ Cup Classic in November of that year.
Demling is at his best in the biggest horse races in the world like the Kentucky Derby 2024. In fact, he has hit 11 of the last 16 Derby-Oaks doubles at Churchill Downs. That means he held a ticket with the winners of both races all but five times in the last 16 years. He’s also called 10 of the last 19 Preakness winners, including nailing his Preakness winner, exacta, trifecta and superfecta picks in 2023, keenly understanding when the Kentucky Derby winner was poised for victory or a massive upset.
