Preakness Stakes 2024 Winner

Seize the Grey Wins Preakness, Denying Mystik Dan Triple Crown

Lukas Claims Seventh Black-Eyed Susan

No Triple Crown in 2024

BALTIMORE, MD - May 18, 2024 - Seize the Grey has captured the 2024 Preakness Stakes, dashing the Triple Crown hopes of Kentucky Derby winner Mystik Dan. In a thrilling finish, Seize the Grey held off a late surge from Mystik Dan to secure the victory at a muddy Pimlico Race Course.

Seize the Grey, ridden by Irad Ortiz Jr., paid $21.60 for a $2 win bet. Mystik Dan, the 2-1 favorite, finished second, while Catching Freedom took third.

Seize the Grey's triumph marked the seventh Preakness win for legendary trainer D. Wayne Lukas, who now has seven garlands of black-eyed Susans. The victory also denied Mystik Dan the chance to become the 14th horse to win the Triple Crown, which consists of the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes, and Belmont Stakes.
