- Article says it's "third Saturday in May", but I don't know how far back that tradition has held. DMacks 04:37, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Origin of name
what is the origin of the name "preakness"? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 151.199.28.24 (talk • contribs).
- Article says it's named after a horse, which was named after a stable. DMacks 04:37, 27 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Secretariat
If the references [1] added by 65.87.250.99 are valid, then the note about Secretariat's time could be included. I agree with the rv, since style of the edits is non-encyclopedic, but I expect we'll see more. Jer ome 23:23, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
