Great White, a horse of immense stature, is poised to make an impression at the Preakness Stakes. This impressive colt measures 17.2 hands tall and exceeds 1,300 pounds, distinguishing him from the typical Thoroughbred.

He experienced a setback on May 2, when he was scratched from the Kentucky Derby after an incident at the starting gate. Fortunately, Great White was unharmed and is now prepared for his appearance in the Preakness Stakes.
