137th Running of the Preakness Stakes - May 19, 2012 #9 I'll Have Another - Mario Gutierrez #7 Bodemeister - Mike Smith #6 Creative Cause - Joel Rosario
This undersized colt is all heart. Running wide and even shifting out slightly at about the 340 yrd, he was able to straighten out and run down Bodemeister. Spectacular!!
Can you believe it's been 34 years since we've had a triple crown winner? It was 1978. Fifty horses have won the Kentucky Derby and Preakness but only 11 have gone on to win the Triple Crown. Last horse to win the first two races was Big Brown in 2008. Could it happen in 2012?
He reminds me,-personally, more of Affirmed. Affirmed was hell bent not to let Alydar get ahead of him. Slew just believed in bulling his way through. That's my 2 cents, and I'm a stickin' to it.
You and me both. But let's not voodoo him and hex IHA. I hope he makes it. As far as being another Secretariat or Affirmed,etc, well obviously he can't be, the only horse he can be is I'll Have Another. But that's beside the point, I just hope he breaks the streak of failures.
What a perfect ride- the jockey was incredible and the horse gave every time he was asked!!!!
Wow AWESOME race and horse. I missed it live which sucked but the video was great. Can't wait for the Breeders Cup.
I'll Have Another = AMAZING. Maybe now people will stop underestimating this fantastic little horse!

What a great name and what a great horse!!
I noticed that, too. It looked to me like I'll Have Another's hooves were sort of slipping around on loose sand. He recovered nicely, though!
That's a Triple Crown run from I'll Have Another, that horse is all heart!
Great race and a absolutely great call of the race.

He reminds me of the Slew and Affirmed. He's all heart.
I'll Have Another isn't a real looker, but what a beautiful mover. That long, bounding stride is gorgeous to watch.

bodemeister is a great runner up!

I'LL HAVE ANOTHER TO WIN!
This horse will win all three.

And he sold for $11,000 as yearling - just one reason horse racing is interesting
Can you imagine owning that horse? I bet the owner was shitting in his fucking pants!!
Oh sorry . Great job by the jockey also lol .
