The 142nd running of the Preakness Stakes was a memorable one.
Kentucky Derby winner Always Dreaming and No. 2 Preakness favorite Classic Empire were locked in a close race for most of the run around the Pimlico track, but Always Dreaming faded toward the end, paving the way for Classic Empire.
But Cloud Computing put together an incredible late surge and won by a nose.
