2008 Preakness Stakes Winners

Horse - Big Brown

Big Brown (foaled April 10, 2005 in Kentucky) is a retired Champion American Thoroughbred racehorse and winner of the 2008 Kentucky Derby and 2008 Preakness Stakes. Bred by Dr. Gary B. Knapp's Monticule Farms in Lexington, Kentucky, the three-year-old was undefeated in his first five career starts. He was sired by Grade III winner Boundary, a son of North American Champion sire Danzig, who was a son of Northern Dancer. Big Brown's dam was Mien, also a granddaughter of Northern Dancer through her sire, Nureyev.

Unraced for more than six months, Big Brown debuted as a three-year-old with a 12-length win in an allowance race at Gulfstream Park. Big Brown was ridden by jockey Kent Desormeaux. It didn't look possible, but Big Brown pulled away to win. The colt drew attention was entered next in the Grade 1 Florida Derby.

Jockey - Kent Desormeaux

Kent Jason Desormeaux (born February 27, 1970, in Maurice, Vermilion Parish, Louisiana) is an American thoroughbred horse racing Hall of Fame jockey who holds the U.S. record for most races won in a single year, 1989.

Desormeaux, in 2008 won his third Kentucky Derby aboard Big Brown, in a time of 2:01 4/5. Big Brown won by just under five lengths. Desormeaux followed this victory with his ride on Big Brown to victory in the Preakness Stakes at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, MD in a time of 1:54 4/5. In the final race of the Triple Crown, however, the Belmont Stakes, Desormeaux was forced to ease Big Brown in after the colt tired at the quarter pole.

Trainer - Richard E. Dutrow, Jr.

Richard E. "Rick" Dutrow, Jr. (born August 5, 1959 in Hagerstown, Maryland) is an American thoroughbred racehorse trainer. Known as Rick, his brother Anthony Dutrow is also a trainer. Their father, Richard E. Dutrow, Sr., was one of Maryland racing's "Big Four" who dominated racing in that state during the 1960s and '70s and who helped modernize flat racing training. At age sixteen, Rick, Jr. began working as his father's assistant. In 1995 he set up his own public stable in New York after his father left the NYRA circuit to return to Maryland. In 2008 he trained Big Brown to a Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes victory, although failing to capture the Triple Crown with a dead last finish in the 140th Belmont Stakes.
