Journalism edged Gosger in a race that had no Triple Crown implications.

Journalism, ridden by Umberto Rispoli and trained by Michael McCarthy, entered the field of nine horses at 6-5 odds.

Sandman finished third.

Saturday’s race was the last one at historic Pimlico as the racetrack will be demolished and rebuilt.

The Preakness Stakes will relocate to Laurel Park in Maryland for the 2026 race, with the intention of the middle jewel of horse racing returning to Baltimore in 2027.
