No one embodied what it means to be a Raven quite like O.J. Brigance.

Chad Brown-trained Iron Honor is your 9-2 #Preakness151 morning-line favorite. Local star Taj Mahal will start on the rail as a 5-1 co-second choice.

For those counting, the 151st Preakness Stakes has lost its potential favorite three times in the last five days. First Golden Tempo, then Crude Velocity and finally, Silent Tactic, whose bruised foot didn't come around. Rough year.
