What We Like About Tuscan Gold for This Year's Preakness Stakes

Chad Brown is one of the best trainers in horse racing today and he's had some success in the Preakness Stakes recently.

in 2017, Brown won with Cloud Computing, his first Preakness starter, and in 2022 he won with Early Voting.

Tuscan Gold technically had the second shortest odds after Kentucky Derby winner Mystik Dan.

Brown's Sierra Leone ran a winning race in the Kentucky Derby (G1) only to come up a nose short behind Mystik Dan. Sierra Leone will be sitting out of this weekend's Preakness Stakes.

In last year’s Preakness Stakes (G1), his Blazing Sevens lost by a head to National Treasure.

“The difficult thing when processing close losses in races like the Derby and Preakness is that there are no do-overs,” Brown said from his office at Belmont Park. “We can’t say we’ll get ‘em next season. Hopefully, we will win the Derby someday, but it’s not going to be with the same horse. There are some tough things to accept when you only have one crack at it.”

Then there is jockey Tyler Gaffalione, the second-youngest jockey in this year’s Preakness Stakes and one of only two riders in the race to have won it before. And he did so in his 2019 debut, winning aboard War of Will. Since then, Gaffalione has amassed more than 2,300 career victories and he was awarded the Eclipse Award as the top apprentice rider in 2015. In 2023, he ranked third by wins North America and second in purse earnings.

Tuscan Gold's limited starting history had him finishing 3rd at the Louisiana Derby, his only graded race.
