Napoleon Solo has won the 151st Preakness Stakes at Laurel Park. Iron Honor tried to make a bid at the homestretch, he couldn't quite catch the winner. Napoleon Solo won by 1 1/4 lengths. He had 7-1 odds. It is his third victory. Chad Summers is the winning trainer while Paco Lopez is the jockey. Lopez has won 4,000 races, but today was his first Triple Crown win.
The time was 1:58.69.

Local horse Taj Mahal led most of the way before the top two took over.
Chip Honcho was third, while Ocelli was fourth.
Earlier: Since the top two finishers in the Kentucky Derby will not be in today's race, just about any horse entered has a good chance to win.
As for me, there are few official collectible items available because this year's race is being held at Laurel Park. Pimlico, like Belmont Park, is undergoing a major renovation.
