2. Lone Sailor (15/1)

Trainer/Jockey: Thomas M. Amoss/Irad Ortiz
Career wins: 1
Recent result: 8th at Kentucky Derby
One thing to know: Lone Sailor finishing eighth in the Kentucky Derby wasn't an ideal result, but in a field of 20 horses it's still an admirable effort. Amoss and his team are hoping a change of jockey can get them on the podium.
3. Sporting Chance (30/1)

Trainer/Jockey: D. Wayne Lukas/Luis Contreras
Career wins: 2
Recent result: 4th at Pat Day Mile
One thing to know: Sporting Chance will be used to the mud on Saturday, having raced in the Pat Day Mile at Churchill Downs just before the Kentucky Derby two weeks ago. He ran well but fell short as longshot Funny Duck ran away with the race.
4. Diamond King (30/1)
![4. Diamond King (30/1)](https://staticbiassets.in/thumb/msid-64211157,width-700,height-525,imgsize-305202/1.jpg)
Trainer/Jockey: John C. Servis/Javier Castellano
Career wins: 4
Recent result: 1st at Federico Tesio
One thing to know: Diamond King is a horse that could cause trouble should the horses that raced in the Derby feel a big of fatigue. He's won four of the six races he's run in his career, and will bring fresh legs into the Preakness Stakes on Saturday.
5. Good Magic (3/1)
![5. Good Magic (3/1)](https://staticbiassets.in/thumb/msid-64211156,width-700,height-525,imgsize-1349341/1.jpg)
Trainer/Jockey: Chad C. Brown/Jose L. Ortiz
Career wins: 2
Recent result: 2nd at Kentucky Derby
One thing to know: Good Magic kept pace with Justify through the entirety of the Kentucky Derby, but didn't have enough to catch him in the final stretch. In the shortest race of the Triple Crown, expect jockey Jose L. Ortiz to push Good Magic a bit earlier so they don't run out of track on the chase.
6. Tenfold (20/1)
![6. Tenfold (20/1)](https://staticbiassets.in/thumb/msid-64211154,width-700,height-525,imgsize-544037/1.jpg)
Trainer/Jockey: Steve M. Asmussen/Ricardo Santana Jr.
Career wins: 2
Recent result: 5th at Arkansas Derby
One thing to know: Son of former Preakness winner Curlin and with fresh legs heading into this year's race at Pimlico, there's plenty of reasons to think Tenfold has a shot on Saturday. But in the one race he's run against this caliber of competition, he finished a disappointing fifth.
7. Justify (1/2)
![7. Justify (1/2)](https://staticbiassets.in/thumb/msid-64211153,width-700,height-525,imgsize-1065749/2.jpg)
Trainer/Jockey: Bob Baffert/Mike E. Smith
Career wins: 4
Recent result: 1st at Kentucky Derby
One thing to know: Justify is the heavy favorite heading into Saturday, and the trends justify (sorry) his short odds on the race — Bob Baffert had trained four horses to Kentucky Derby wins before 2018, and each one went on to win at the Preakness.
8. Bravazo (20/1)
![8. Bravazo (20/1)](https://staticbiassets.in/thumb/msid-64211152,width-700,height-525,imgsize-1200500/1.jpg)
Trainer/Jockey: D. Wayne Lukas/Luis Saez
Career wins: 3
Recent result: 6th at Kentucky Derby
One thing to know: Bravazo has finished in sixth and eighth in his past two races — not exactly the form you like to see from a horse you're picking to contend in a Triple Crown race.
