Nyquist sitting pretty as favorite in Preakness following post position draw

LEXINGTON, Ky. (WTVQ) – The 141st running of the Preakness Stakes is set for this Saturday at Pimlico.  Today was the post position draw.

Team Nyquist waited patiently to hear their Derby winner will break from post number three in the second leg of the Triple Crown.

The unbeaten Nyquist will look to become the first horse to win from gate 3 in the Preakness since California Chrome in 2014.

Derby runner-up Exaggerator will break from the five gate as the 3-1 second betting choice behind the favorite Nyquist at 3-5.
