Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted Sunday at 10:15 PM Journalists Share Posted Sunday at 10:15 PM Journalism (Curlin), runner-up in the GI Kentucky Derby, will contest the GI Preakness Stakes at Pimlico Saturday, co-owner Eclipse Thoroughbred Partners confirmed in a tweet Sunday night. “Journalism has been grand since the Kentucky Derby and [trainer] Michael McCarthy has green-lighted him to head to Pimlico Race Course for the 150th Preakness Stakes,” the tweet read. “We look forward to showcasing Journalism's talents in Baltimore in such a coveted American Classic with Umberto Rispoli set to ride.” After watching Journalism train Sunday morning at Churchill Downs, McCarthy said, “I thought he looked very good. I didn't see a whole lot of difference. He's a horse that carries a lot of substance, a lot of condition. He looked very, very good this morning.” Journalism opened 2025 with a win in the Mar. 1 GII San Felipe Stakes and followed up with a win in the Apr. 5 GI Santa Anita Derby. He came up 1 1/2 lengths short of Sovereignty (Into Mischief) as the Kentucky Derby favorite May 3. Journalism will likely ship to Pimlico Tuesday, McCarthy said.
