Preakness

So, Rachel Alexandra or Mine the Bird?

Liveblogging a two-minute event seems like an impossible task, but the NYT is trying.

Update: And the filly wins by 3/4 of a length! If the race were a 1/16-mile longer Mine the Bird might have caught her, but that's racing.

What are the odds of a jockey Triple Crown?

I'm already envisioning the trivia questions in 2059 or so.
