because it hasn t happened since 1978. this is the longest drought ever in horse racing, although i will say, based on how i ll have another came back to win the kentucky derby, he does look like a horse coming into this preakness with a shot of going on to new york in three weeks as a triple crown contender. you mentioned 1978, that was affirmed, why was it so hard to do, kenny? i think one of the biggest things that s happened over the years, is there are so many different trainers that are in the game, the horses are running a lot of 2 years old, it is more lucrative for their owners, sometimes the horse is a tired horse and doesn t make the transition to his 3-year-old son. or season. like a great college player who doesn t make the transition to the nfl. we have seen that with a lot of 2-year-olds. both races coming from the derby, they are both fresh
horses. bodemeister didn t run as a 2-year-old, so that s why coming in, we have two pretty good horses, two fresh horses here for the preakness. go out on a limb, help us make big bucks. we are waiting for it. that s what i like about you, alec. le alex. put all the money in. put it all on i ll have another. don t forget about bodemeister. keep a look at them. creative cause for the super effect. koseti is the long shot. i ll leave it up to you. put all your money on i ll have another or spread it out a bit. i don t know. you are the man, kenny rice. i tell you, thank you very much. i will have to make calls when we get off the hour in half an
crazy with one long shot, i ll give you dialed in, i ll give you one long shot, sway away who is going to be about 12 or 15 to 1. how is that? that s two horses. you re awesome. a big kiss for that. thank you so much, kenny rice. have a good one. enjoy it. thanks, alex. be sure to watch the 136th preakness stakes at 4:30 eastern time today on nbc. let s go to the picture of the day. this snapshot from a minor league baseball game in richmond, virginia, captures a true super mom in action. that s tiffany goodwin, catching a foul ball while holding her 8-month-old and 3-year-old is clinging to her leg. just the right place at the right time and the right moment. it was amazing. it was great. great photography. the picture taken last sunday also shows her husband trying to grab that ball, but, no, she snatches it away. goodwin says she usually carries the glove to games to protect her children. that picture is catching the eye of the people around the world.

kingdom is a co-favorite with dialed in. kenny rice is live in the middle of all the excitement for us in baltimore. this makes it three years in a row we had this meeting on preakness morning. good morning to you. tell us about the talk. it is always good to see you on preakness morning, alex. we have a lot of excitement going on here because the big horse animal kingdom arrived about 30, 35 minutes ago, about an hour away from here at fair hill, maryland. he came in and he s in his stall, number 40, the stall that houses the preakness the derby winner traditionally. there is a lot of excitement with him. can he be that super horse and win the preakness? so, okay, this year s preakness, though, kenny, how do you see it as being any different this year than in previous years? does it change the tenor just based on the horses from year to year? yes it does. coming into this year there was a horse named uncle mo who was last year the best 2-year-old. everyone was looking at him t
