[1] Buskin, described as "a good-looking little bay gelding"[2] won the $2,500 Preakness Stakes at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore, Maryland on Tuesday, May 20, 1913.
Buskin broke first but fell back to fourth under a heavy hold by jockey Jimmy Butwell as they hit Pimlico's famous "Clubhouse Turn."
[3] As the race progressed, Buskin was continually restrained as he dropped to fifth down the backstretch but tracked the pacemakers just three lengths behind.
[6] Buskin and Holiday the next year were the last geldings to win the Preakness Stakes until Prairie Bayou won the race in 1993.
Buskin was injured in the spring of 1916 and was euthanized on July 5, 1917, at Belmont Park due to worsening of his condition.
