Preakness has arrived at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore. Here is how to watch the entire event with results, TV time and odds.

Journalism, the beaten favorite in the Kentucky Derby, is the morning line favorite again in the Preakness. He outran 17 of his 18 rivals in the Derby, only finishing behind Sovereignty. On Saturday Journalism will face a field that is much smaller (eight horses) and full of question marks.

Our horse racing betting picks believe the Preakness is wide-open, and that American Promise's poor finish in the Kentucky Derby is much better than it looks on paper.
