Obviously 89 and 97...

But I'll add 95 too, It was nice seeing Timber Country finally fullfill the promise he showed at 2...

Here's a good video.. all the stretch runs of the Preakness from 89 to 06...

All three races were exciting moments in Horse Racing...but I give an edge to the Silver Charm race.

89 of course. 97 was a tremendous finish.

the last 4 have all been stirring emotional races for various reasons.

gotta go with the sunday silence/easy goer preakness. two fantastic horses gutting it out, no one giving an inch, matching strides in perfect unison. that was a hell of a race.
worst? (other than last year) would be when codex and cordero carried genuine risk practically into the stands...
