Preakness Finish 2007


Kentucky Derby winner Street Sense lost by a head to Curlin in the second jewel of the Triple Crown. In Saturday's finish Street Sense looked like a sure winner in the stretch, only to be caught in the final stride by hard-charging Curlin and jockey Robby Albarado. And now it's on to the Belmont Stakes, where there won't be a Triple Crown try for the third straight years after six attempts in the previous 10 years. The last Triple Crown champion was Affirmed in 1978.
