Starting post positions for the 138th Preakness® Stakes will be drawn Wednesday evening, May 15, 2013. Pimlico racing officials will use a pill pull, which employs a small numbered ball in a blind draw, to decide post positions for the middle jewel of racing's Triple Crown.

The Preakness is limited to 14 starters. Fourteen of the last 19 years have produced double-digit starters.
