145th Preakness Stakes: Upset Win For Swiss Skydiver Who Becomes First Filly To Win Race Since 2006

 At Baltimore:


Swiss Skydiver, with jockey Robby Albarado aboard, held off Kentucky Derby winner Authentic on Saturday to win the 145th edition of the Preakness Stakes, becoming the first filly to win this jewel of the Triple Crown since Rachel Alexandra did the trick in 2006 and only the second since 1924.


Trainer Kenneth McPeek won his first Preakness.


Jesus' Team finished third.
