Giacomo eyes Crown at Preakness
Kentucky Derby winner Giacomo goes for the second leg of the Triple Crown in the $1m Preakness Stakes on Saturday.
The three-year-old, trained by John Shirreffs, sprang a 50-1 shock to win in Kentucky a fortnight ago but will be much shorter odds at Pimlico.
Nine of the 14 runners in the Preakness also ran in Kentucky, including likely favourite Afleet Alex, who was third in the Derby.
Last year's Preakness Stakes was won by Smarty Jones.
The half-blind colt captured the attention of America after winning the both the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes.
But he was only second in the Belmont Stakes, the final leg of the Triple Crown
Smarty Jones was half blind?
