The 143rd Preakness Stakes is here. The second (and shortest) leg of the Triple Crown will be held Saturday night at a muddy Pimlico Race Course with a field of eight Thoroughbreds headlined by Kentucky Derby winner Justify. Here is some background information on each of the eight horses set to run in the race on Saturday, followed by their post positions and odds:

Bravazo

Trainer: D. Wayne Lukas
Jockey: Luis Saez

He finished sixth in the Kentucky Derby despite being the third-biggest longshot in the field of 20. He's got a record of 9-3-1-1.

Diamond King

Trainer: John Servis
Jockey: Javier Castellano

He earned a spot in the Preakness by winning the Federico Tesio Stakes. He's 6-4-0-1 and is ridden by Castellano, who won last year's Preakness.

Good Magic

Trainer: Chad Brown
Jockey: Jose Ortiz

The Breeders' Cup Juvenile winner and runner-up to Justify at the Kentucky Derby. He's 6-2-3-1 and is saddled by Brown, who trained last year's Preakness winner, Cloud Computing.

Justify

Trainer: Bob Baffert
Jockey: Mike Smith

You know the deal. He won the Kentucky Derby by 2.5 lengths to stay undefeated and become the first horse since 1882 to win the Derby without racing as a 2-year-old.

Lone Sailor

Trainer: Tom Amoss
Jockey: Irad Ortiz Jr

He's coming off an eighth-place finish at the Kentucky Derby.

Quip

Trainer: Rodolphe Brisset
Jockey: Florent Geroux

The colt earned a spot in the Kentucky Derby with a Tampa Bay Derby win, but his team decided to forgo the Kentucky Derby in order to focus in on the Preakness.

Sporting Chance

Trainer: D. Wayne Lukas
Jockey: Luis Contreras

He's 7-2-1-1 and finished fourth in the Pat Day Mile at Churchill Downs on Kentucky Derby day.

Tenfold

Trainer: Steve Asmussen
Jockey: Victor Espinoza

Tenfold did not race as a 2-year-old and missed this year's Kentucky Derby after a fifth-place run in the Arkansas Derby. He's 3-2-0-0 and has Espinoza -- a three-time Preakness winner -- riding him.
