Preakness Stakes History From Survivor to Bold Compiled by DAILY RACING FORM. Reproduction of Tabulation Is Prohibited Without Permission of DAILY RACING FORM. The Preakness Stakes was named in honor of the winner of the inaugural running of the Dixie Handicap in 1870-at the Maryland Jockey Clubs Pimlico track. The first edition of this three-year-old classic was run in 1873, two years prior to Aristides triumph in the initial Kentucky Derby. This fixture has steadily grown in monetary value and popularity until now it is included with the Derby and Belmont as Americas "Triple Crown." The Preakness has been run over various distances, it being run at one and one-half miles prior to 1889; one and one-quarter miles in 1889 and one. and one-sixteenth miles from 1894 to 1900 and in 1908: one mile and seventy yards from 1901 to 1907; one mile in 1909 and 1910; one and one-eighth miles from 1911 to 1924, inclusive, and one and three-sixteenths miles since. It was run in two divisions in 1918, with War Cloud and Jack Hare Jr. being returned the winners. The Preakness was not run between 1889 and, 1894. From 1894 to 1908 the Preakness was run at the Gravesend track in New York. These renewals were only recently discovered. Sir Barton, Gallant Fox, Burgoo King, Omaha. Bold Venture, War Admiral, Whirlaway, Count Fleet, Pensive and Citation annexed the Preakness as well as the coveted Blue Grass fixture. Only eight went on later to score in the Belmont Stakes, as well, to complete the American "Triple Crown," these being Sir Barton in 1919, Gallant Fox, king of the three-year-olds in 1930; Omaha, also owned by William Woodward, who performed the feat in 1935; War Admiral, outstanding member of the three-year-old division in 1937; Whirlaway, who swept all before him during the 1941 season to earn the "Horse of the Year" title for that year. Count Fleet, who performed the feat in 1943, Assault, who joined the list in 1946, and Citation in 1948.
