💨 Abstract
Umberto Rispoli made history as the first Italian jockey to win a Triple Crown race, achieving victory in the Preakness Stakes with his colt, Journalism. Despite a challenging race, where he had to navigate through traffic and avoid potential collisions, Rispoli's strategic riding and Journalism's resilience secured their win. Journalism, the even-money favorite, had previously finished second in the Kentucky Derby.
