Who won the Preakness Stakes in 2024? Full results, finish order & highlights from the race image

There might not be a Preakness winner quite like Seize the Grey.

The horse is owned by 2,570 people. He's trained by 88-year-old legend D. Wayne Lukas. He's jockeyed by 25-year-old Jaime Torres.

Lukas has had horses win the Preakness before, but it has been a while. He came in with six wins, but his horses had not won since 2013. Torres finished 2023 as the top apprentice jockey in the NYRA circuit with 37 wins but had never raced in a Triple Crown event before Preakness.

Mystik Dan was a surprise winner at the 2024 Kentucky Derby, edging Sierra Leone in one of the closest finishes in race history. But while Mystik Dan made a late push to finish second at the Preakness, he came up just shy of winning the second leg of the Triple Crown.
