Kentucky Derby winner I’ll Have Another (left) won the 137th Preakness on Saturday, charging down the backstretch to edge Bodemeister by a head for a victory that sustained his Triple Crown bid. Living up to his name, I’ll Have Another put himself in position to become the first horse since Affirmed in 1978 to sweep the US treble by taking the Derby, Preakness and next month’s Belmont Stakes in New York. I’ll Have Another won in 1:55.94 with Derby runner-up Bodemeister settling for second again and Creative Cause third in a field of 11 horses, the smallest at the Preakness since 2007.
