Derby champ I'll Have Another wins Preakness

BALTIMORE, Maryland (AFP)

Kentucky Derby winner I'll Have Another won the 137th Preakness on Saturday, charging down the backstretch to edge Bodemeister by a head for a victory that sustained his Triple Crown bid.

Living up to his name, I'll Have Another put himself in position to become the first horse since Affirmed in 1978 to sweep the American treble by taking the Derby, Preakness and next month's 1 1/2-mile Belmont Stakes.
