I just love the races, I have since I discovered them at 10 years old. Nowadays, I'm just relieved when no horses are injured. I fear this beautiful sport is going to be shut down with all these horse deaths. I hope they can figure out what's going on so it doesn't keep happening so often. Congratulations, Johnny and National Treasure!
One of the best horse races I've seen. My dad was a jockey and a horse owner, so I spent most of my Saturdays as a child at the race track, mostly at Ross Meadows in Ada, Oklahoma, which isn't there anymore. It was good times. But this race is a instant classic. Loved it
How was this race one of the best races you ever seen? lol it was an absolute crawl on the front end 23.98, 48.93, 1:13 and change, that is ridiculous for any stakes race, but for a triple crown race? Bro it's just sad that's how bad these horses were. Watch the race again nobody is passing anyone except the lousy backpedaling Maryland bred horse the #4. You couldn't have a more boring race in my opinion, the race was over when I saw the half mile and 3 quarter mile times, no one can close into a crawl like that, national treasure got to pace himself out there on the front, boring race if you ask me
John Velasquez is a heckuva jockey. Happy to see him add the Preakness to his other wins in the KD and Belmont. Congratulations to National Treasure and the connections as well.
Epic race. I was right there at as they came into the final stretch. National Treasure bet slip in hand. Amazing way to end the day! Such a great final race!
“Here are the final steps.” NBC immediately proceeded to post its RUclips branding logos blocking the slo-mo closeup footage. Well played NBC Internet content guy.
He wasn't tired, he was fighting his jockey the whole race, it was clear early on he wanted to run and Javier wasn't listening to him. A horse will only fight his rider for so long, but he still ran a pretty good race. He'll have some good days ahead.
Not a Baffert fan but glad that Johnny V got his Preakness. He dictated the pace of the race all the way around. Somehow knew it wouldn't be Mage's day.😢 Blazing Sevens really put up a fight. Exciting race!
it's a tradition in my household to watch all Triple Crown races. There are so many great races that have been watched. This was one of many!!! Love them horses!!!
Tough front running win by National Treasure. It looked like he was going to be overhauled at the 200 metre mark but he kept fighting on, bumps and all. Very craftily ridden by John R. Velazquez with a slow pace in the first half of the race.🏇
. Thanks for that flash memory. I did too. It was tough to take that loss back then. Easy Goer my favorite horse of all time. Blazing Sevens resembled Easy Goer with that bravely fighting motion to the end.
Bob Baffert shouldn't have a Training License. Its a privilege not a right and he doesn't deserve to have horses in his care. The statistics and rulings against him verify this.
Statistics? He won his first KY Derby with an $85,000 horse. Silver Charm. His 2nd? $17,000. Real Quiet. All you see is the superstar today. Go back to Nogales Arizona and hear the tales of this guy who tore up the place. Statistics? I hope you are including the stats before the world heard of him.
@@mikester695 You can't ban talent. Baffert won his first KY derby with a horse he bought for $85,000. Others were spending 6-7 figures. He won his 2nd KY Derby with a $17,000 horse. Go back. Do your research. 12 picograms got him banned? Really? Or was it the success he worked for?

Mage is the only horse that ran in the Derby. #1 National Treasure 1 #2 Chase The Chaos 5 #3 Mage 3 #4 Coffeewithchris 7 #5 Red Route One 4 #6 Perform 6 #7 Blazing Sevens 2
Alas, not this year. He seemed a little too worn out with not enough time to do his thing. I'm still thrilled to see what he does with some rest in the Belmont and the rest of his career. Congratulations to Bob. Lovely race.
Now that we know that Mage is not the champ that won the Derby, this Belmont is getting interesting. He ran the race comparatively like he ran before the Derby....he might not run in the Belmont.
Totally agree with you on that there something wrong with this picture they keep blocking the Kentucky winner all around that track that why he lost the race than they show that cheater bob the horse trainer honestly one a cheater always a cheater
Both NATIONAL TREASURE & BLAZING SEVENS Were Very Fresh As The 6 Week Angle Worked Again While MAGE Ran That Big Derby Speed Figure Coming Back On 2 Weeks. Johnnie V Did A 2nd Quarter In 25! And Once Again Irad Ortiz Pulling His Intimidating Bush League Tactics In The Stretch

@tahoe You are correct. Tahoe someone said all the top trainers in the game are using the juices.That is the one reason why a collective outcry against is methods are not heard.
tremendous race and excellent narration it would have been much more fantastic if the narrator also mentioned the jockeys in the last 200 meters by the way this is for me the best horse narrator he knows about that, national treasure, blenzing seven, national treasure, blenzing seven, jhon velaquez, irad ortiz, jhon velaquez, irad ortiz
No competition in the race, too many scratches. So Yes, he should have won. Glad for Johnny V and National Treasures, what a beautiful horse...I will continue to Pray for all the animal's and their safety....
I thought Mage was going to get ‘em with a half mile to go. All three fired right then. They all had the same amount of gas in the tank. I thought it was a great race.
Mages' jockey ran a horrible race. Held him back too long. Had a chance to go inside. Didn't take it. Then put himself directly behind the two leaders when the horse wanted to go outside. The jockey lost this race. Period!
Professional jockey on Mage should have known the "pedestrian pace" did not favor him and gone for broke wayyy earlier. Poor ride! Mage in the Belmont = no worries!
The commentator evidently hasn’t figured out that National Treasure getting away with a slow pace to have enough energy to hold off Blazing Sevens is a ridiculous statement. EVERY horse had the same pace or slower so they should have had the same energy for the stretch. The better horse won, plain and simple
National Treasure was looking at the 2nd place horse and saying, "that all you got". Then he straightened up and finished the race. First time I've seen that.
I’ve picked 9 winners in the Derby since Winning Colors, and the last two triple crown winners, but I hadn’t had a winner like this in 5 years. The triple didn’t pay much but it felt good to finally win one. Thank you National Treasure.
Such A Beautiful Finish National Treasure!.
Sorry for Mage but happy for National Treasure, Bob Baffert and co. Great Race !

Great ride by John Velazquez.
He didn't do ANYTHING...

I'm so happy for John Velazquez to finally win the Preakness!
Remember Bodiexpress dumped him at the gate. No one was hurt -- so it was funny. He finished the race. Then took a victory lap.
So happy for him too. Congratulations to National Treasure!
Happy Velazquez won but disgusted by Baffert being the trainer of the horse he won with.
One of the best horse races I've seen. My dad was a jockey and a horse owner, so I spent most of my Saturdays as a child at the race track, mostly at Ross Meadows in Ada, Oklahoma, which isn't there anymore. It was good times. But this race is a instant classic. Loved it
It was excellent. Still have Bonecrusher Vs Our Waverly Star as the best.
What was so great about it? There have been 100s of races with better horses fighting down the stretch in horse rac8ng history.

Congrats National Treasure. Blazing Sevens will only get better.

“Here are the final steps.” NBC immediately proceeded to post its RUclips branding logos blocking the slo-mo closeup footage. Well played NBC Internet content guy.
Mage was just tired, clearly. Baffert delivers once again!
Mage wasn't tired. Johnny v stole the race with a 48 half no horse is closing into that

Yes, the only thing that messed my betting up a bit was RR1. I had him down for show. Otherwise all my other bets won!

I bet all those horses are so happy they didn't trip and break an ankle. They live to run another day.
Horses don't have ankles, they have fetlocks!!
Great great ride by Jonny v wow outstanding
😮😮😮 what a dual Duo down the stretch.
Congrats to JV on the win and to National Treasure! Heckuva ride by Irad today...
IRAD should be an actor he was not riding the horse. His idol johnny v was allowed to win the race, Irad was moving his right elbow faking a ride.
@@jackpersaud7662 So, you are suggesting that Irad threw the race?
Had that image of Easy Goer vs. Sunday Silence in that stretch run!

National treasure won despite being bumped several times down the stretch. Great focus.
Congratulations John Velazquez
