Preakness Stakes 2025 Results & Payouts After Journalism's Fantastic Finish
The Preakness Stakes 2025 results are in: Journalism came all the way back to win. After falling close to five lengths behind, the favorite finished in a torrid final stretch to pass Gosger. Journalism won in an unofficial time of 1:55.47. Advertisement Gosger finished in second after the final charge from Journalism. Sandman finished No. 3, followed by Goal Oriented at No. 4. Full results and payouts will follow as the Preakness Stakes official results are released. Excitement for the Preakness Stakes was already tempered a bit going into the race when Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty was pulled out, ending any chance of a Triple Crown this year. A growing number of owners and trainers of Kentucky Derby winners have chosen to skip the Preakness Stakes due to the short turnaround, instead focusing on the final jewel of the Triple Crown, the Belmont Stakes. Advertisement It's a trend that has generated some controversy within the horse racing community, ending the chances of a rare Triple Crown. There was a 37-year drought between Affirmed's Triple Crown in 1978 and the next winner, American Pharoah, in 2015. Justify, which like American Pharoah was trained by horse racing legend Bob Baffert, won the Triple Crown in 2018. 'It is troubling, and it has been troubling for several years,' Jerry Bailey, a Hall of Fame jockey turned NBC Sports analyst, told The Associated Press. 'It's completely flip-flopped from my generation when it was the rule that they would run back and the exception that they wouldn't.' But the Preakness Stakes gave some others a chance to rebound, including Kentucky Derby favorite Journalism which came in as the favorite in the Preakness Stakes at 6-to-5 odds.
