The Preakness
It’s the second jewel of the big racing crown.
The race takes place every May in Baltimore town.
Horses in the Kentucky Derby will have another go
at a racetrack everybody knows as “Pimlico”.
Here’s another chance for horses and jockeys to show their prowess.
The racing elite meet in a competition called “The Preakness”.
Thousands of horse racing fans will be there.
Don’t look for me. I won’t be found anywhere.
The gambling world is certainly not a land of milk and honey.
I don’t care for the race. I have better uses for my money.
