Preakness Stakes 2012 TV coverage schedule: I’ll Have Another defends Kentucky Derby on NBC

Sports fans will be tuning in to the 137th running of the Preakness Stakes live from Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland Saturday, May 19 to see if I’ll Have Another, the upset winner of the Kentucky Derby, can defend his title in the second leg of the prestigious Triple Crown of racing.

Coverage begins at 4:30 p.m. ET/1:30 p.m. PT on NBC, with the actual racing set to kick off at 6:05 p.m. ET/3:05 p.m. PT, though typically it does get pushed back a little, so don’t be surprised if it’s 6:15 or later when the race actually starts.
