Triple Crown 2011: Prepping for Preakness

This spring, Mike Fritz and Tom Legro of the PBS  Newshour went to Pimlico racetrack in Baltimore — the site of tomorrow’s Preakness Stakes — to learn more about the sport of horse racing. 

As we head into the second leg of the 2011 Triple Crown, watch “King of Pimlico,” the second installment in the series, which focuses on the venerable (and aptly named) Maryland trainer King T. Leatherbury.
