Shocking to see someone pass at the opportunity for the triple crown.

not if they give the horse the same milkshake they gave him before the derby.

jockeyes dont get paid if they win a race, they get a piece of the purse, so coming in the top four or five gets them a paycheck, obviously the higher finish position the bigger paycheck.

has a filly ever won at the preakness?

Fifty-two fillies have competed in the Preakness with four crossing the finish line first: Flocarline (1903), Whimsical (1906), Rhine Maiden (1915) and Nellie Morse (1924). The most recent filly to run in the middle jewel was Excellent Meeting ten years ago.
