Majestic Prince Aids Longden’s Edge in Preakness Prep
Trainer Johnny Longden, riding his Derby winner Majestic Prince, says personal observation gives insight into the horse’s health and readiness for the Preakness at Pimlico. He notes a prior 102 degree check and expects a tougher field, focusing on his colt’s condition rather than rivals.

Hawk's Not Immune To Tribe's Pox
Cleveland Indians slump worsens as Ken Harrelson fails to spark a turnaround after a late April trade. He bats .198 with one homer and four RBIs in 45 at bats, while fans and manager Alvin Dark hoped for a lift.
